      Hi – I have a Crane Drexel bathroom sink; how can I clean the faucet aerator? Thanks in advance for any help.

        Hi Sis, I don’t know the answer to this. I suggest you give deabath.com — they are Crane experts. Tell ’em I sent you. Good luck.

      I have a 1964-65 American Standard bathroom sink: attached to the wall with time all around the bathroom wall half-way up. The faucets have a done base & I think that they are called “thru-sink faucets”. The are in the back wall of the sink itself. The pipes come thru the sink. They are becoming “I n-chromed”: they are peeling at the faucet exit site & are scratchy. Help … I need new faucets!!! Any ideas??

        Hi Ninna, I am not able to envision what you are describing. One place to try for help is deabath.com, tell them I sent you. Good luck, Pam

        I don’t know the answer to this. See this story, I think they just tell us “natural hardwood”: https://retrorenovation.com/2009/08/28/youngstown-kitchens-monterey-cabinets/
