The problem with really ground-in dirt is that you can spend time scrubbing, with the rubber gloves and the cleanser and plenty of elbow grease, and you know that's it's a hell of a lot better than before you scrubbed, but anyone walking in for the first time would look at the sink and think "that needs scrubbing".

As I'm unpacking and dealing with boxes to the ceiling, I'm doing pictures along the way so I'll be able to show my progress.
One of the things I like about alt.recovery.clutter is that you can post the smallest accomplishment, one that most people would think "so what?" about, and get praise and support. I need that!
Have you tried Barkeeper's Friend cleanser?
