    You can use some bar keepers friend, a sponge or cloth, and some water. Start by sprinkling a small amount of bar keepers friend directly onto the porcelain and gently scrub the area with a damp cloth or sponge. Then, rinse and wipe the area to remove any residue and prevent water spots.

    Soak a non-abrasive sponge in the baking soda/ammonia solution. Dip the sponge in the solution, scrub, and repeat until you're satisfied. Rinse well. After rinsing, wipe thoroughly with a clean rag or the baking soda will leave a white film behind.
