What type of stains? Sometimes a paste of baking soda and water, left to sit for a few hours, then lightly scrubbed with a slightly wet paper towel will remove stains. If ineffective, try a few drops of real lemon juice mixed with baking soda, applied to stain. Wait 15 minutes, scrub lightly, wipe with wet paper towel and let dry.
Try stair bleach and a cloth on top wet the cloth let sit a hour or longer
You use a lot of bleach to get your bathroom counters clean. But you have recently noticed some yellow stains on your normally white bathroom counters. You try to remove the yellow stains with more bleach, but the stain remains. The stain is caused by using bleach to clean your countertop surfaces. Bleach or bleach based cleaners should not be use on laminate countertops.
To remove the yellow stains, all you need is some hydrogen peroxide and a clean cloth. Pour some hydrogen peroxide in a small bowl. Wear latex gloves to protect your hands. Dip a clean cloth or towel into the bowl of hydrogen peroxide. Wring out any excess liquid from the cloth or towel. The cloth or towel should be damp---not dripping with hydrogen peroxide. Wipe the yellow stain with the hydrogen peroxide-soaked cloth or towel. Do not rinse the surface or rub the counter. Let the area air dry. Repeat steps 2 through 5 to remove other yellow stains from your counters. You can also use hydrogen peroxide to remove yellow stains from marble and granite counters as well as other stone counters.
Use a mild detergent Use a non-abrasive cloth and a mild liquid detergent or household cleaner to clean the surface.
Rinse and dry the surface with clean water and dry it with a soft, non-abrasive cloth. Avoid flooding the laminate, especially near seams.
Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasives, or furniture polish, which can damage the surface. Use liquid Bar Keepers Friend and rinse well.
For stains, you can make a paste of baking soda and soda water, brush it on the stain, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it sit for 24 hours. Then, wipe the surface with warm water and a washcloth. To maintain the shine of a high pressure laminate countertop, you can use an antibacterial surface cleaner and a soft microfiber cloth daily
