Cleaning RV sinks

A question from my DW. What do you use to clean the plastic RV sinks?

Cleanser and SOS pads seem a bit rough.
Twenty six foot 2010 Dutchmen Lite pulled with a 2011 EcoBoost F-150 4x4.

Just right for Grandpa, Grandma and the dog.

The Mr. Clean sponge is amazingly abrasive, that's why it does such a good job taking marks off the wall, and often the paint with it. If you scrub anything polished with that sponge, don't be surprised if that ends up being the dull spot. We use SoftScrub GEL, not the white stuff that is akin to rubbing compound. The gel is easy on everything and does a great job.

Dawn and a sponge... a little bit of magic eraser for stubborn stains. I wouldn't use anything more abrasive than magic eraser though...

.... and hot water to get the grease that the dish detergent doesn't get. That's all that is needed.

If you use anything abrasive such as a green pad, steel wool pad or cleanser like comet or soft scrub, you'll put micro scratches in the sink which will allow for stains to set. All the suggestions above will work fine.

Clorox Cleanup or 10percent bleach solution. Works good on white or off white to remove stains and brighten.
