Why the stainless steel sink is rusty
Why the stainless steel sink is rusty
1. When decorating the house, minerals or acid-base substances fall onto the surface of the sink and cause rust.
2. If the water pipe at home is galvanized, there are too many metal elements in the water, which will lead to changes in the water quality, and it is easy to rust after the water stain remains.
3. There are chemicals or detergents left in the sink causing rust.
4. Tools made of iron and steel products will rust when placed in the sink for a long time.
How to prevent the sink from rusting
1. If there is floating rust or mildew, you can use toothpaste to clean the rust immediately to prevent rust.
2. When decorating a new house, the sink can be cleaned at the end. Before reinstallation, the sink can be cleaned after the residual water in the pipe is drained, and then dried with a cloth.
3. It is better not to put iron tools such as kitchen knives and scissors in the sink for a long time, and avoid scrubbing the surface of the sink with hard objects such as steel balls.
4. After using the sink, the sink must be wiped clean, and the internal residue must be disposed in time.
How to deal with the rust on the stainless steel sink
1. If there is slight rust, you can directly use the toothpaste at home to clean the rust on the surface.
2. If rust is caused by some metal components, use a sponge or rag and then add cleaning agent to clean it. Do not leave water stains on the cleaning agent after cleaning, otherwise the cleaning agent will also cause rust.
3. If there are rainbows on the surface, it is usually caused by oil stains or detergent. You can use warm water to add neutral detergent to clean it.
