If you ever have a stainless steel sink I don't recommend this. A club I once belonged to added bleach to their dish water in the bar. In two years the brand new stainless steel sinks were leaking like a sive! Something about a chemical reaction between the bleach and the stainless steel.
I use a stainless steel bowl, but, that club must have done something else to their sink, because ALL restaurants have to have bleach in the water for dishwashing, and I've never heard of any of them leaking.
Sounds more like someone put muriatic or sulphuric acid in the sink.
