Gents,Thank you for the suggestions. After a good general cleaning, I plan to use vinegar and then move to CLR. I bought a bottle of CLR and when I read the instructions is said to keep away from brass, copper and aluminum so I am being a little cautious. Now I just need to find time when the wife is away to turn the sink into a lab. Thanks, --John Henard
