As well, it will be more difficult to keep clean in the future. The easiest thing to do is to wipe the sink with a soft towel after each use. it only takes a second to keep it looking shiny and new. Over time, some buildup may appear so best to use a product such as Enjo with water, which is also a fantastic eco-friendly solution!
