SOS for a stained sink

To outsmart stubborn marks on a porcelain sink, skip pricey cleaners and make your own: Mix 2 Tbs. of cream of tartar with enough lemon juice to form a paste and rub over the marks. Let sit for 30 minutes; rinse. Lemon juice acts as a natural bleach while the cream of tartar scrubs away stains and fills in scratches.
