I was burning a cone incense and left it on the sink, and this stain won't come off. I tried baking soda, water, vinegar, hydrogen peroxide. I tried letting them sit for multiple interations, and it made no difference.

You can not.
This is not just a surface stain, but it has literally changed the material underneath the burn.
Amy attempted fix will just be an obscene amount of work for what will still be an obvious repair job.

Should I lightly sandpaper it with a very fine sandpaper?

You can try, but it is likely deeper than you think and will require a lot of sanding. But I would try as a landlord would bill you for a new sink anyway.

Your nice list doesn't seem to have non polar solvents in case it's greasy. Something like soap, alcohol, (turpentine, acetone, xylene).
But yeah, might not be a surface stain as the other comments suggest.

Any suggestions if it's not a surface stain?

Just chiming g in on the non polar stuff. You could try hand sanitizer too. I had some stains from dye that would not come out of my tub and hand sanitizer did the trick!

Using sandpaper worked! But thanks! :)
