Scratched porcelain sink

I shaved off my beard this morning, and in doing so found the need to rinse off my razor often and thoroughly. Upon finishing I noticed that somehow I’ve managed to scratch the hell out of the sink with the back side of a plastic razor.

My girlfriend is none too pleased. How can I fix it?

You can get porcelain repair kits at most hardware stores. They will fix small scratches quite well, in my experience.

You might want to try some pumice (carefully). I had a toilet bowl that I thought was scratched beyond repair, and some rubbing with a pumice stone removed the scratches.

Mods, feel free to close this one. I’ve been dreading her calling me all day to bawl me out, but it turns out that I didn’t scractch the sink, my razor leaves marks like a crayon on the sink and they scrub right off with some Soft Scrub. Apparently this isn’t the first time I’ve done it either, but it was the first time I noticed. :smack:

Alternatively, they can move it to the Pit so we can tease you about it for a day or two. :wink:

Yeah, that’s cool too. :smiley:

But just think of the points you can score by removing the scratches anyway… :stuck_out_tongue:

Chicks really dig that stuff. And if it’s easy, so much the better! :smiley:

I was about to say exactly that… I’ve done the same thing, but after a moment of sudden realisation on the relative hardness of the materials in question (“M’oh!”), realised they couldn’t be scratches, and indeed they come right off.

I’ll admit that I was absolutely baffled as to how a cheap plastic desposible razor from Target was able to just destroy a Kohler sink in a matter of minutes, but it was first thing this morning, I had 6 or 7 beers watching football last night and so was a bit fuzzy first thing and accidentally destroying things is kind of a hallmark of mine. It’s totally plausible that because that’s just my luck.
