I recently shared the following post on my social media but did not include how I get my kitchen sink so shiny and clean. The steps can be found in the bottom of the post.
So, it has been a bit, ok, almost forever, since the kitchen sink looked so clean and shiny I just had to share!
It is often covered in calcium and lime buildup, towering rinsed dishes in the right side and overflowing dirty dishes in the left side, both waiting on the dishwasher to be emptied; that can't be emptied until the counter is cleared, which is normally waiting on groceries to be put away and dirty dishes, pots, pans, glasses, and baking dishes to be moved closer to the already overwhelmed sink to create enough space to get the clean dishes out to stack, to then close the dishwasher to be able to reach the cabinets where the clean dishes belong. I know, TMI.
Are you envious of my shiny sink? And why am I sharing so openly?
Because I am REAL! I do have a messy life just like everybody else, it is a life filled with sin and repentance, daily. I don't plan on sinning, it just happens naturally, that is where my Savior Jesus Christ becomes my one and only superhero! Because of Jesus' crucifixion for me, and all sinners, God sees me through "Christ colored glasses"! Jesus took the punishment for my "little sins" and my "big sins", even though they are all the same in His eyes. He provided grace, mercy, and a path to a Heavenly eternity. Nothing is better than Jesus Christ and His love for me.
He takes my unintentionally destroyed and devastated kitchen and sink and makes shiny and new without hesitation! That is true love from my superhero!

How to get and maintain a "Shiny sink"
To remove lime, rust, calcium, and hard water stains I have found the following steps to be very effective.
1. Obviously, clear the sink.
2. Spray down the sink with Thieves Household Cleaner.
3. Lightly "dust" all surfaces with baking soda.
4. Lightly scrub, distributing the baking soda more evenly the surface.
5. Sprinkle citric acid across the surface causing a chemical reaction.
6. Let bubble, if more reaction needed spray with additional Thieves Household Cleaner or water.
7. Scrub with a washcloth. (If you have cuts or sensitive skin, I recommend having cleaning gloves on, citric acid hurts if there are open wounds.)
8. Rinse with water.
9. Dry with towel.
10. Enjoy your shiny sink!
I use:
1. Thieves Household Cleaner from Young Living. Available through me at http://theoilsweuse.com/ or communicate via text or call to (765-376-8015)
2. Arm and Hammer Baking Soda that we purchase in bulk at Sam's Club.
3. Citric Acid purchased in bulk from Amazon https://smile.amazon.com/Milliard-Citric-Acid-Pound-VERIFIED/dp/B00EYFKNL8/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=citric+acid&qid=1579809855&sr=8-3
Happy Cleaning and God Bless!
