Acidified thiourea silver polish stained stainless steel sink
Dear all,
I was recently polishing my silver jewelry and when I finished I put the polish in the sink. Well my sink is stainless steel and the polish leaked out of the lid and into the sink. The silver polish contains acidified Thiourea
⇦this on
eBay
or
Amazon [affil links] . The result is a circle (looks likes a water mark) that has appeared on the surface of the sink. What has caused this, and what can I do to remove this circle? Did the thiourea damage the stainless steel? Thanks for any help.
