- How to restore a stainless steel sink video step by step for a sparkling sink. 3 different ways or 3 easy steps for the ultimate sink makeover. Your kitchen sink after this way of polish will look like new! You don’t need more than 25 minutes to clean and restore your water kitchen sink. Before you start cleaning your stainless steel sink / polish your sink please wear gloves to protect your hands.
The first way is to rub it with aluminium foil and some dish washing liquid. It will polish your kitchen stainless steel sink and it will take out the stains but it will not remove the scratches. The aluminium foil is a good way to polish metal and chrome parts like the chrome kitchen tap without creating scratches because aluminium is softer. When you’re happy wipe it with a clean cloth.
The second way is to use scouter pad. With big moves rub it until will remove scratches and stains. Very important do not do small moves because you will create more marks. You can remove the waste strainer for better result. After you wipe it with a clean cloth you will see a nice smooth matte finish surface.
Metal polish cream to restore your kitchen sink completely! Rub it as much as you can with a cloth And then when you will finish with the all sink rub it with a different clean soft cloth. Wash it a couple of times and you’re ready 😁.
I’m so pleased with my shiny clean and no scratches sink and with my new water tap looks stunning!
Be creative and I would like to wish you... happy crafting on whatever you make!

I decided to keep the vintage laundry trough Dad installed in the laundry 50 years ago, aside from the fact today’s stainless steel just isn’t the same gauge or quality, the difficulty of finding a large basin would cost at least $500 Australian dollars. Thank you
Totally agree!!! You’re very welcome 😀
I was thinking of buying a new one... Guess I will use my motorcycle exhaust polisher!!
Thanks man!
👌👌👌you’re very welcome!
You will save me few grand replacing my kitchen sinks. Great job
Thank you! So happy to hear that!!!😁👍
Nothing better then a shiny sink. I’m gonna try the cream though because although mine looks shiny I can still see scratches in the sink. Great video! I love watching house hold items going from grimy to clean 😊
Indeed! Shiny sink plus a water tap I’m over the moon! 😁 Good luck!
Hi. Could you please tell me if you used the cream. Our sink is new but I did some scratches wile cleaning it wit a brush.... Thank you in advance.
Thank you so much for your video! Our current sink size is not standard and we were having a hard time finding a replacement that would fit without a major countertop remodel. I will try methods 2 and 3 this weekend and hope for a good result. Again, thank you!
You’re very welcome and thank you for your comment! 😀
@@DIYPD I actually used method #2 and it worked beautifully! Took a lot of elbow grease, but so worth it. I haven't found a metal polish yet, but as soon as I do, I want to apply it to my sink. I can imagine that it will help keep the surface looking better for a longer period of time.
Again, thank you!
😀 so happy to hear that ! You will be very impressed with the polish cream. Just to let you know, I used the Autoglym polish cream for metal. Do not forget after the polishing to give a couple of times a good wash to the sink. 😀
@@DIYPD Can I assume that you bought the polish cream from an Auto Supply Store? I could not find anything like it in the big box stores in my area.
Also, I will make sure to rinse the sink a couple of time after polishing the sink. Thanks for the reminder!
I bought the cream from Amazon
Thanks for sharing this. Did you use dishwasher liquid for the second step?
Wow, so shiny!!! I will surely try it!! 👏🏻💪🏻😊 Can I skip the step with the cream and just use the foil and then wash?
Of course you can Dimitra. It’s up to you which way you want to follow. Shiny!!! Every time I’m washing the dishes I’m wearing sunglasses!!!😎😎😎
DIYPD 😂😂😂 Thank you!!!
What material is around your sink? It looks good! Thank you for the help
Your very welcome. It’s a kitchen laminate worktop.
Thankyou !! Does it have to be a scourer pad please or will a normal metal scourer work or would that probably scratch? Thanks
You’re very welcome! The normal scourer is very soft and doesn’t work. So yes has to be scourer pad. You can find them at the supermarket! 😀
Nice❤
Thank you! 😀
Thank you for this. Would you recommend sequentially doing all three steps for a really old and stained sink? Secondly, how much pressure do we apply when using the foil? Would the foil cause more scratches on the surface if too much pressure is applied?
You’re very welcome! For a really old sink I recommend heavy duty scourer pads to remove scratches with big moves. Do not stay at one spot. Then the foil to give a little bit of shine. Big moves again and do not afraid about the pressure. Aluminum foil is softer than steel and it will not make scratches. At the end use a metal polish cream for a stunning shine! The whole procedure takes time so be patient.
@@DIYPD whole not hole
@@PhillyDjHook gramma po po is out again... get a life
@PhillyDjHook that's what he wrote,read properly!
Very awesome! BTW what metal polish cream did you use?
Thank you very much! Autoglym metal polish is the cream. 😀
@@DIYPD many thanks. I'll keep an eye out for it.
This is the cleanest sink on earth
😁 thank you Jeremy!!!
Thank you very much, I restored my depressed sink
Thank you! So happy to hear that! 😀
It was very helpful but I got a question though. My sink got stains caused by chemical used to unclog the pipes. As a temporary solution (till I'd change the sink), I used a paint suitable for metal surfaces (for car hubcaps). I suppose this won't last but in any case, would any of these solutions you provided would remove the chemical stains?
Hi Donald, to be honest not sure about it. Perhaps worth to try but I cannot promise. If you try and it does work, can you please let me know too? I really hope it does.
Thank You Peter!
At work I ruined the stainless steel by applying the wrong chemical cleaner on our new stainless steel rest room. I'm planning on using the aluminum foil and the metal polish. I'll let you know the results.
Thanks again for creating and sharing your work for us Peter.
Your very welcome Daniel! Yes please let me know how it goes and if you need anything else please tell me! 😀 Thank you!
@@DIYPD I couldn't tell a difference after the aluminium foil and stainless steal polish.
I'll try the scouring pads Monday.😊

Are you just using liquid detergent?
Hello! Can I check, for 2nd way, do we need to sand back and forth in a particular direction? For 3rd way, can you share which product you are using?
Hi Caroline,
If you want to try the 2nd way try to make big moves (ideally at the same direction) and try to not stay at the same point for a long time.
In the 3rd way, I used Autoglym polish cream.
You can also find all the details at the description.
Hope this helps, but if you still have any questions let me know! 🙂
Hi. I spilled some muriatic acid on my sink. Now, there are several dark spots. Will this process solve my problem? Thanks.
I have no idea. You can try, the damage is already done.
Thanks. More power
Ok now I'm going to work 🙂
😀 That’s the spirit Adam!👍👍👍
What brand of metal polish cream did you use?
Autoglym cream. But I’m sure any metal polish cream will work.
@@DIYPD Thanks. I just did the aluminum foil cleaning step and looks great, but definitely want to use the polish cream.
You’re very welcome!
Hi iam srilanka. Sink water salt what this remove.
Yes, shouldn't be a problem at all. Let me know once you try :)
what metal polish cream did u use
Autoglym metal polish! 😁
thanks
What cream is it?
Autoglym
How about doing all threee 🤨. Trying ..
Sounds perfect! 👍👍👍
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I was about to spend hundreds on a new sink. Aluminum foil is in the pantry. HAHA!
What brand of polish was used?
Thank you so much! 😀 Autoglym metal polish cream!
@@DIYPD Thanks so much!
Rags to riches forsooth
Very talented
Thank you! 😀
What brand of metal polish did you use?
autoglym metal polish
@@DIYPD Thank you
You’re very welcome!
Help! I used bleach in my New stainless steel farmhouse sink. I already tried the baking soda but it didn't help.
Anyone I need ideas how to get it back to new
Sorry about that. Because it was new it’s better to ask the company first.
Do you have to do all three steps?
Of course not. These are 3 different ways to restore your sink. The foil is very quick way and it will give some extra shine without extra scratches. The heavy duty scouter pads will remove most of the scratches and they will give a mat finish. For extra brilliant shine use the polish cream. It’s up to you which way or ways to follow and always depends from how your sink looks.
super video, thanks for sharing,but please, wear gloves!!!!! please...
Thank you! I will 😁
You showed 3 methods , one after the other on the same sink. Method 2 was after it was already cleaned and 3 after 2 cleanings. How do we know that the last trap methods are as effective if we don’t see from a stained situation.
You can try and if it doesn’t work to do all 3! I believe it will work.
Very shiny but still have scratches. I want to remove the scratches. Guess I have to continue searching on TH-cam.
If you want to remove the scratches completely you have to insist more with the second way.
LA ILAAHA ILLALLAHU MUHAMMADUR RASOOL ALLAH ❤
Use gloves to protect your hands
Thank you 😊 but I’m allergic to latex gloves 🧤
Unbelievable
Thank you! 😀
I think you mean "step" instead of "way" .
Hi Cali, thank you for comment. The reason I say “ways” is because some people do not like to use chemicals so they may prefer to stop after the first or the second step and to not apply the cream. You do not have to follow all the process, you could choose either to only apply cream, or only scrub the sink with foil or only scrub the sink with the scourer pad which depends on what finish you want to give (matt, satin or gloss) Only sure thing is that all 3 ways will give you a better finish and a shiner sink despite if you use them all or just one of them. I hope you try it and you will be happy with the result! Have a lovely Christmas.
Still scratchy at the end. Ugh.
😲
This is not restoration bro. Its a simple cleaning
Your comment much appreciated. Thanks and have a lovely Christmas!
Haha. Pretty sure they had a crack fire in my sink. None of that worked
Stupid music, you need to narrate instructional videos.
Thank your for your comment.
Sorry to hear that you didn’t like the music, but I do and I know that I cannot please everyone but I am absolutely fine with that. I do appreciate the advise though.
Also, not sure if you have seen any other of my videos but this is the style I use. There are so many great TH-camrs making DIY videos and I am sure that you can find someone with similar taste/style to yours so you can follow.
All the best
No he doesn't 🤣 it has writing for a reason
Why do you say "wear gloves" and then you don't? As for using the abrasive pad - that's just wrong. This is a useless video.
Hi Gienne, thank you for your comment. The reason I don’t use gloves is because I have an allergy, but I thought that I should advise people to not copy my example.
Re the use of the abrasive pad, that was the best way to remove the most of the scratches from the sin. If you try it, you will see the difference!
I hope this helps.
Didnt you see that he use metal cream polish in the end???
Jeeeez talking about hot shot here 😂
