Stains in ceramic sink?

The one thing that hasn't worked well in our kitchen we had done 3 years ago is the ceramic sink, it's scuffed and is now looking quite stained. I tried a photo but it didn't show up!

Are there any products that are good for a white ceramic sink to take out stains or is it just a case of huge amounts of elbow grease? I did wonder about bicarbonate but I'm afraid to put anything on it in case it gets more scuffed or dull.

Any ideas?

Put the plug in add cold water and a good dash of bleach
Leave overnight if you can

I use pink stuff paste on mine.

My DH found a miracle cure for our enamel bath - a mix of flour, salt, bicarb and vinegar. Mix to a paste, apply and leave for an hour or so before gently scrubbing away.

I use cuff cream cleaner and it comes up sparkling new.

Oh thanks everyone! Trying to start on getting stuff clean for Christmas and this is the thing that's been annoying me most!

Plug in. Fill with water. Add a dash of bleach and leave for an hour (or overnight).

I spritz it with a mould & mildew remover (e.g. detol) and rinse after 5min.
The bicarbonate technique up thread is better for the environment and I’ll be giving that a try next time.
