1. First, wash the sink using the same detergent you use when washing dishes.

2. Be sure to rinse the sink with water to remove any remaining household chemicals, and then dry the surface being cleaned with a cloth or paper towel.

3. Sprinkle flour evenly over the sink – two tablespoons is enough.

4. After this, thoroughly scrub the sink with a disposable towel or a hard sponge, making circular movements. It is better to clean the areas around the drain and faucet with an old toothbrush.

5. All that remains is to collect the greyish-dirty mass that the flour has turned into and throw it in the trash, after which you should rinse the sink with water and wipe off any water drops.
