    1

    Fill your sink with hot tap water. Pour a cup of household bleach into the hot water.If you cannot use bleach, add a cup of white vinegar instead.

    2

    Allow your sink to sit for one hour so the hot water mixture can loosen any grime that is coating your acrylic sink.

    3

    Drain the hot water solution from your sink and rinse it thoroughly with hot water to remove all traces of bleach or vinegar.

    4

    Wet your washcloth with warm water and squirt some liquid dish detergent onto it.

    5

    Scrub your sink with your soapy washcloth, remembering to also go after the faucet and any trim surrounding your acrylic sink. Use an old toothbrush reserved only for cleaning to get into cracks and crevices or attack particularly stubborn areas.

    6

    Rinse your sink with warm water and then dry it with a lint-free cloth. You can avoid having to go through this intense cleaning process with your acrylic sink by simply rinsing it out and drying it with your lint-free cloth after every use, along with spraying it with a water and bleach solution once a week, being careful to thoroughly rinse off the bleach.

    Easy. Squirt a little body wash or dishwashing detergent, even shampoo on the sides. Partly fill the basin with warm/hot water and wash all over. Using an old toothbrush scrub around the taps. rinse off with hot water, wipe over and let dry.

    No scratching compounds or bleach needed.

    Micro fiber cloths. You can get them in the kitchen supplies department at Wal-Mart or Target. What I do is spray my cleaner on the surface to be cleaned, wipe excess off with a paper towel, and then wipe it again with my micro fiber cloth.
