Our porcelain-enamel kitchen sink has developed stains, especially
where the plastic "feet" of a "sink protector" have rested. I think
that stuff that has been dropped into the sink and not rinsed away
immediately has caught on those "feet" and remained there long enough
to stain the surface. I have cleaned the sink from time to time with
Soft-Scrub, but hat no longer seems effective, and now I find that
the stained areas actually feel rougher than the unstained areas.
Any suggestions how to fix this problem?
Depends on what the stais are. *Scrubbing...bleaching...etc
First thing I'd try is to plug up the sink, put some bleach
in it and let it sit awhile.

OP- give the bleach a shot.
My experinece with "roughened" porcelain sink (porcelain over cast
iron not steel), the porcelain can be attaked / etched by acid
liquids, lemon juice, ctirc acid.
If the roughness isn't deep & the procelin sink is top quality, the
roughness can be polisihed out the a honing compound.
