CARE AND MAINTENANCE
ALWAYS:
- Clean everyday by thoroughly rinsing with a mild soap and warm water
and wipe dry. Some chemicals such as chlorides may corrode stainless
steel, make sure you rinse the surface immediately.
- Rub lightly with a soft cloth in the direction of grain lines on a regular
basis for additional preventive cleaning.
- Keep the sink free of any standing water as this can cause a buildup of
mineral deposit, which can affect the appearance of your sink.
- Any stubborn stains should be removed by scrubbing in the direction of
the grain with a mild abrasive such as Comet.
- Always rinse the sink after using any cleaning agent and wipe dry. Clean
any mineral deposits built up over time with a mild solution of vinegar and
water followed by a thorough flushing with water. Towel dry after each
use to prevent mineral deposits from building up on the surface of the
sink.
- Remove any scratches with a Scotch-brite pad and cleaning agent
rubbing in the direction of the grain.
NOT RECOMMENDED FOR MIRROR FINISH.
NEVER:
- Leave water spots, steel cookware, utensils, wet sponges, cloths or
cleaning pads in the sink for lengthy periods; iron particles often develop
rust spots in the stainless steel surface.
- Use a steel wool or scoring pad as it damages the sink surface and
causes discoloration.
- Rub the sink across the stainless steel finish lines.
- Let household cleaning agents or bleach sit in your sink for long period
of time as this may ruin the finish of your sink.
- Leave rubber mats, sponges, or cleaning pads in the sink for long
period of time as this may ruin the finish of your sink.
- Use any drain cleaning products containing sulfuric acid or hydrochloric
acid as this will attach the sink. Silver cleaners can also contain acids that
will damage the sink surface.
- Use the inside of the sink as cutting surface.
- Use a steel wool pad to clean your sink.
