Any tips on touching up a porcelain coated caste iron sink?
So I have this sink, see. A very nice sink made of caste iron. Some of the porcelain has cracked, see, and I don't want to spend the money on a new sink. Seems like overkill, see.

I've heard of using epoxy paint, but is that really the best option? Any other ideas?

Thanks!

Writer.

1. They sell porcelain repair kits for chips.
Check at a hardware or home improvement store.

4. That's what I'm trying to avoid...
As it would entail removing the caulking and lifting it out of the counter.

I will definitely look for a repair kit, though.

Thanks! :)

5. You have a Hindu sink?
Caste: One of four major hereditary classes in which Hindu society is divided.
