Is using antibacterial soap and hand sanitizer sufficient to sterilize my wash basin before shaving?
I've been using this combination of products to do a "quick" wash of my bathroom sink before shaving, because I don't want heavy duty cleaning product chemical residue getting in the water after I fill the sink I fill the sink with hot water to use for shaving.
The mixture is;
antibacterial soap (two squirts) and hand sanitizer (1 full squirt) on a sponge that is used for only for this purpose.
I wipe the mixture over everything (sink, handles faucet, outer basin, etc), leave it for 5 mins and then wipe clean with hot water and a sponge (the same sponge rinsed free of soap)
Is this sufficiently sterilizing my bathroom sink?
(Note: the sink being addressed is my own private bathroom sink - common area bathroom is sterilized with ajax/comet cleaner and bleach followed by being sprayed down with disinfectant after primary rinse and wipe down)

That is way too much cleaning. You may be OCD.
Just clean your basin once a week with a little ajax or whatever you like and then rinse it out and your done. No need of daily sanitizing.
