How can I remove scratches on a stainless steel sink please

Here I show you how to care stainless steel sinks:

• Clean stainless steel at least once a week.
• Always apply stainless steel cleaner/polish with a nonabrasive cloth or sponge, working with, not across, the grain.
• Do not use steel wool, wire brushes or abrasive sponge pads. Use only non-scratch cleaning pads.
• Cleaners containing chloride (bleach) are not recommended. If used, rinse the surface immediately to prevent corrosion.
• Most stainless steel products will scratch from everyday use. However, these scratches will blend over time to create a unique finish.
• Do not store open containers of cleaners or chemicals such as acids, bleach, sodium chloride, lye, toilet bowl cleaner, drain cleaner, or hard water stain removal products under your sink.

Cleaning directions listed pertain only to their corresponding material and don't seem to be meant for regulator cleansing. regulator cleansing directions for chrome and vitreous china.
Success with cleaners and procedures depends upon such factors because the hardness and temperature of the water, using exact measurements of ingredients, changes in cleaning formulas and therefore the condition of the merchandise being clean. Since there are variations at intervals these factors, Kohler cannot guarantee the effectiveness of the formulas mentioned.
Allowing water to evaporate on metal will form water deposits. To avoid this and keep your product looking beautiful, it is important to wipe the sink clean with a soft cloth after each use.

I would use a copper scrubber (like steel wool only copper) and something like Soft Scrub. Copper is softer than steel, so it won't scratch.

You can but it will always short some sort of problem there. Hope this helps. Wally.

Try this at your own risk. Step 1 Consider using a product made for stainless steel such as Scratch-B-Gone or Bar Keepers Friend (see Tips).

Step 2 Or, try spraying an all-purpose cleaner (such as Formula 409) on the scratches.

Step 3 Use a non-metal scouring pad (such as Scotch-Brite pads) to rub the cleaner in, always rubbing in the direction of the grain.

Step 4 Keep the stainless steel wet with the cleaner as you work, and rinse the pad often.

Step 5 Rinse the surface and wipe dry.

Tips & Warnings

• Before using any treatment on your stainless cookware, sink or appliances, it is wise to call the manufacturer for advice.
• A new product called Scratch-B-Gone is touted as the "first aid kit for stainless steel." You can find it at many home improvement stores.
• Bar Keepers Friend is another product for stainless steel. It can be found in most grocery or home improvement stores, or at www.barkeepersfriend.com.
• To keep stainless steel sinks from scratching, put a rubber mat in the bottom of the sink to protect it.

Stainless Steel use softscrub on Granite you can use soft scrub or vinegar

The only way to fix scratshes and chips from a granite surface is to use a sander. You would be safer to have the company thet installed it, resurface it. They have the proper equipment.

s with most things, your stainless steel sink WILL scratch with use. However, over time as the sink ages, scratches will become less apparent and in fact blend into the surface. Minor scratches on the inside surfaces of the bowl may be blended into the sink by lightly rubbing a Scotchbrite pad in the direction of the finish grain. Be sure to rinse thoroughly with water and towel dry after this procedure, removing any particles left over from the Scotchbrite as you rinse.

Have you tried a really fine steel wool? I don't know if this would work. I have stainless steel farmhouse sink, front exposed all stainless steel. My contractor scratched it up horribly when he was putting it into the kichen. he fixed it amazingly with a fine steel wool pad. I don't know if your scratch is too deep for that but it couldn't hurt. The scratches on our sink were surface but very noticeable. Hope this helps.
