My champagne coloured acrylic bath has a couple of dark stains, probably

I polish my acrylic handbasin and shower base with Brasso.
But you'd better wait for more comments in case there's a better way.


Interesting technique to have discovered, Matty.

I seem to recall 'making' 'brasso' with just cotton wool damped in white
spirit with a dash of ammonia. I'd have thought you'd typically need
something acidic on those items - unless you are in a soft water area I
suppose, but if there is a little mild 'grinding paste' in the real Brasso
as well, that might explain it.
