Challenger sinks

Our 2014 Challenger has very stained sinks. I’ve tried Ajax powder and several other cleaning products. Any ideas how to get them clean? The shower bottom is stained too.

Can you just replace the sinks with new ones?

Go to Lowe's or Home Depot and look for 30-second cleaner. It comes in a gallon jug and it cleans anything. I've used it on concrete, vinyl siding, metal roofing. It works with very little or no scrubbing. About $10.00 for a gallon, you don't use much.

30-Second Cleaner

30-Second Cleaner
I have used that for mold and fungus on a roof and siding, how would that work on a stained sink?

Don't use on SS or other metals without promptly rinsing

Keep away from SS

I would try Citric Acid type cleaner

What do the stains look like, rust or something else?

If they are SS sinks, replace and don't use products that have chlorine

Bill I have used 30 second cleaner on stainless and other vinyls, metals and concrete, it works, it removed stains I had on stainless steel without any issues or hard scrubbing. Basically you spray it on, let it work for 2 minutes and hose it off, it's done. If someone had issues then I guess it does affect some items.

They look like food and coffee. The sink is a yellowish color to start with

Did you try bleach and simple green, leaving it sit over night?
