.
Of course, cheaply and thoroughly, this works with the tried-and-tested
household remedies baking soda and vinegar
.

Next, add vinegar and let the mixture soak in for a bit.

After you have cleaned the sink of dirt and limescale stains, another, but rather unusual
household remedy ensures a shine in the sink: baby oil!
