Best way to clean clogged up sink
#1

Wanted to get opinion on clearing clogged up sink in newells
Is anyone found good products which wont harm tanks etc.

I am using bicycle's wheel spoke trying to get all the junk trapped in the sink , love to use Drain All or something similar but don't want to damage tanks etc, using chemicals solutions.

Try one of these.. they are low impact and will grab hair or what ever.. then some hot water to finish..

If that doesen't work.. See Richards Fix!

I agree that taking the trap apart is the best. In an emergency I have had success using baking soda and boiling water.

Okay,
So I took the trap apart and nothing in there! clean! but sink still clogged up not entirely but it takes time to drain!
I spoke with Newell mechanic and he thinks I might have partly kinked hose coming of the sink , trough our bed & under!!

I am going to take the bed apart ( bottom shelf ) and look for the hose and see if is kinked up from retracting in and out or perhaps clogged up down there! I was hoping this will be just easy fix right at the sink part...
