I had to call a plumber yesterday to unplug my kitchen sink. It was a nasty one... about 12 feet down. He first poured a caustic substance down my drain and that didn't work, so he eventually used a snake (or whatever it's called).
The problem? The caustic material he used took some of the color out of my black granite sink.
It's not a white stain... more like a dirty gray spot, about the size of a thumbprint. But I don't like it one bit. And it's pretty noticeable. (At least to me.)
Is there any kind of paint or stain or something I can use on a black granite sink to at least make the bleached spot look less noticeable?
Spray your sink with granite cleaner or pledge and wipe down. I used to have a Blanco granite composite sink in our previous house and just loved it - I soaked some white dishtowels in bleach in the sink and it made a dull grayish ring. I was able to get it out with granite cleaner/polish. I have a friend who uses pledge on hers to keep it sparkling.
^That should work! Cattknap, I have a friend that actually waxes hers, she says it helps to keep h2o spots from forming......(I think she has a little OCD going on)
I don't have any Pledge in the house, so I tried Endust, which appeared to work (I was thrilled) but then it came back. So I didn't know if there was something specific to Pledge that makes it work.
Do try the granite cleaner...I hope it works for you. The other thing that might work is Mr. Clean Eraser...sometimes I used to use that to remove mineral build-up.

Does it specifically have to be Pledge?
