Ok, we have a cast iron tub and kitchen sink. They are great but they are getting scratched up - I have NO idea how to take care of it. . . help?

Unfortunately cast iron is prone to scratches. I know of nothing to prevent this from happening, sorry. Because the surface is shiny these scratches show up more. I had a cast iron kitchen sink, before I replaced it with granite, I used to fill it up with water and pour clorox in the water to make the scratches less noticeable. The clorox bleached the staines out and made the sink shine.
