Cleaning My Copper Sink: Before & After Photos

Cleaning My Copper Sink: Before & After Photos

Original Copper & Brass Polish

We recently did a huge remodel of our bathroom, and one of the things we added was a copper sink. The sink is absolutely beautiful and looks so gorgeous in my bathroom – I love it! The only downside to having a copper sink is the fact that they tarnish so quickly. No matter how often I clean it, my sink seems to get a murky green buildup almost immediately, which makes it a challenge to keep it looking nice. So when I had a chance to try a complimentary bottle of Original Copper & Brass Polish from the Fuller Brush Company, I was very eager to see if this would do a better job.

To test this, I did my normal bathroom cleaning routine, saving the sink and faucets for last. I figured it wouldn’t be much of a test if I used it on a sink/faucet that was already clean! 😉

Here’s a side-by-side comparison:

As you can see, there are still some spots of tarnish on the bowl. This is the first time I have ever used a treatment like this to clean the sink, so I’m not surprised at the build-up. Overall, I’m pretty happy with this cleaner. I am most excited about the fact that this polish contains an anti-tarnish ingredient meant to add a protective barrier; I’m hoping that this will keep my sink looking great for longer. I will keep you posted!

Yuck!

I used a couple of old socks as rags to clean the sink with – look how much green gunk they picked up! I thought it would be cool to show you how much came off during the cleaning, since it was hard to capture all the details in the photos – the camera flash has a tendency to catch the light on the sink and wash out the pictures somewhat. Poor Mr. Snowman is totally green now!

The Original Copper & Brass Polish from the Fuller Brush Company is available for $7.49 on Fuller.com.
