Laundry Sink meet Muriatic Acid

Thanks to the help of Muriatic Acid 61 years worth of ick removed! It took a lot of scrubbing and spraying, but the results are well worth it.

LOOK - It's so shiny and clean!!! This is just the first step of many for this dear old early 50's laundry sink.
The plan is:
  1. strip the paint on the outside
  2. patch any hairline cracks (there may be two on the outside surface but its hard to tell) 
  3. clear coat the outside surface - if you have a cement laundry tub you might as well show it off!
  4. patch, fill, sand any rough spots on the inside surface of the tub, bondo like a dented car if you will
  5. coat the inside with enamel....should I go with white or a fancy color?
  6. clear coat the metal on the rim
  7. find faucet to fit the existing holes or use a lame generic utility sink faucet - ho hum
  8. make legs
  9. install 
  10. throw a laundry sink party!

Nice Legs!
