Baking Soda and Vinegar


I asked myself a question about a substitute for Comet cleanser.  Here’s what I found online:

Throw out your Comet cleanser and break out the baking soda and white vinegar!
Throw out your Comet cleanser and break out the baking soda and white vinegar! Sprinkle the baking soda onto the grimy surface you would like to clean then spray white vinegar over the baking soda until it starts to foam. Leave the foam on the surface for a few minute so it has time to loosen up the grim and then just scrub away! Follow up by rinsing off with hot water.

6:59 AM  Okay, here goes.
6:05 AM  I need to get more baking soda, but I used what I had.  (No more cookies, no more cakes until I go shopping)  what surprised me was how it fizzed when I sort of sprayed on the vinegar.   (I sprinkled because I didn’t have an empty spray bottle.)  It was like an Alka Selzer.  Hope it cures what ails my sink.  I’m supposed to leave it on for a few minutes.

6:30 AM  Doesn't look great, but I was doing it with too little baking soda, I think.  

5:01  I now have more baking soda, so I'm going to try again tomorrow.

I don't think this is the kind of community-provided bench the SF Chronicle was talking about today in its article https://www.sfchronic...
