Hi I'm new to this mn stuff so please be gentle
My kitchen sink and drainer is made of hard white plastic, and it is looking dirty, just general marks (rust marks) and stains. We live in rented flat so not our choice and we can't change it.
I have scrubbed with cif and hot soapy water and have even tried the dreaded bleach but I can't get it clean,
so please wise mners any ideas?
Thank you in advance

Try dishwasher powder and a kettle full of boiling water and let it soak for a while before scrubbing. Generally works a treat. HTH

We had one of those in our last rented house. Never looked clean no matter how hard I scrubbed it, especially as I don't use commercial cleaners normally...so I just put up with it while we were there & just used a little bleach in it when we left so it looked clean for the inspection

Who the hell ever thought these were a good idea? We also had one in a previous house and it was such a pain! But I always used neat bleach brushed on with the dish washing brush and left until all was white again. It definately worked.
