Is this true: A real wine cork (not synthetic) can remove scratches from a porcelain sink?

Serious amounts of wine were consumed by the other guests prior to this demonstration, but I was nursing a single glass of wine with lots of water on the side, so I KNOW I wasn't drunk.

At a friend's house this weekend (he of the "I can't eat desserts...the sugar goes right to my head!" as he opening the 3rd bottle of wine. And isn't wine a carb, which is just a fancy name for sugar?) he showed us how vigorously rubbing a scratch in a porcelain sink with a wine cook removes the scratch. And it seemed to work! Not sure if it immediately comes back, but it was gone at that moment.

Has anyone else tried this?

 
speaking of porcelian sinks, does anyone know how to remove water spots from a black porcelain

sink? comet doesn't do it.

I'll check back later as I have to go to the store and get wine in case the sink gets scratched too. thanks Mar '-D

 
yes, must find wine with REAL cork and give this a try. on the black porcelain, have your tried the

Mr Clean Magic Eraser sponge? just thinking that might work.

 
I'll look for the Mr Clean sponge and see what that does to the spots, thanks Angie. since

Marilyn didn't specify, I had to get both red and white wine to see which cork works the best... '-D

 
I think a Beringer. cheap, but nice for sipping. a bit too sweet for a meal though.

It's a bit darker and more flavor than a White Zin. IMHO I keep it "chilled" on the deck---just handy outside the kitchen door! I don't think bears like wine.

 
maybe, if you poured them a glass and offered a hug? LOL OK, enough silly, I can't do sweet wines

or sweets in general. guess I'll stick to the grigo's and chards. thanks for the response.
