When steel rusts, it will swell up. This swelling causes the sink to begin to expand and, eventually, crack from the pressure of continuous expansion. Some sinks can get away with a little rusting, but any significant amount of rust can cause your stone sink to begin showing hairline cracks throughout. A sink crack can ruin the beautiful look of any vanity - especially one that's practically new. Not only does the look suffe. Sometimes solid surface tops can crack and need repairing, but most often sinks just look bad. A thorough cleaning with a strong cleaner and, if necessary, sanding with fine sandpaper can help restore an old solid surface sink to its former glory.
Kitchen or bathroom sinks can easily crack if they are made of ceramic material. Apply a small amount of epoxy adhesive to the cracked area. Dampen the sponge and use the corner of the sponge to carefully wipe away any epoxy that surrounds the crack. Do not wipe over the crack since it will take time for the epoxy to dry.
