SINK MAINTENANCE TIPS – STAINLESS STEEL SINKS
-By following these maintenance tips, you can maintain the finish of your
stainless steel sink for longer:
-Scratching on the surface of sinks will occur over time through normal
usage. Scratches cannot be removed only made less noticeable by using
stainless steel polishing creams and cleaning products. The best form of
maintenance is frequent, regular cleaning. A little bit of cleaning on a
regular basis is preferable to a major clean on a sporadic basis.
-The best method of preventative maintenance is to ensure the sink is clean
and dry. Rinse and towel dry the sink after each use in order to minimise
major cleaning, keeping it shiny and relatively free of water spots.
-Keep the sink free of any standing water, which may build up mineral
deposits. The quality of your water can affect the sinks appearance and this
water quality will vary from household to household.
-To clean your sink use the mildest cleaning procedure that will do the job
effectively. Exercise extreme care with household cleaners in particular
detergents or bleaches.
-Always rinse the sink after using a cleaning agent and wipe the sink dry to
discourage water spotting.
-Metallic scouring pads and steel wool pads should not be used to clean
your sink or any utensils in the sink. They will not only scratch the sink but
also leave a residue of small iron particles, these may not be visible but
they will most certainly lead to rusting and corrosion on the sink surface.
-Do not leave any mild steel, cast iron cookware or implements anywhere on
the sink for extended periods of time. The combined presence of iron and
moisture with stainless steel leads to surface corrosion and sink staining.
-Do not leave wet sponges or cleaning pads in the sink overnight as they
will trap water which could lead to staining or discolouration of the sink
surface. The unique properties of stainless steel are dependent upon
exposure of the surface to the atmosphere.
-We recommend that you do not use chlorine bleach in your stainless
steel sink, as chlorine will attack the protective layer that makes stainless
steel truly stainless. Any drain cleaning products containing sulphuric or
hydrochloric acid will also attack the sink.
-For the occasional treatment of grime and mineral deposits that may build
up over time, use cleaning products specifically designed for stainless steel
following the manufacturer’s instructions.
-If rusting or spotting occurs it can easily be removed with the use of a
cutting compound, a soft scrubber (such as nylon or plastic) and a little
elbow grease.
STAINLESS STEEL SINK PRODUCT CARE AND CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
-Always wipe the sink down with warm soapy water and a cloth.
This will remove general everyday stains from your sink.
-In hard water areas limescale deposits can build up on the sink over time.
The limescale can become strongly coloured by such foods as coffee and
red wine etc, we recommend the use of lemon juice or vinegar to remove
this. Simply apply, leave for a few minutes and rinse away with water.
-If stains become ingrained in the bowl, an overnight soak using diluted
biological washing powder should remove the marks easily. Ensure you
thoroughly rinse the sink with water afterwards.
-For further advise on cleaning products please contact our Customer
Service team on Tel: [phone] or email: [email protected]
-We recommend the use of baskets, grids and chopping boards to help
reduce the risk of accidental damage.
-You must not pour strong chemicals down the sink such as bleach,
ammonia, caustic soda, white spirit and sterilising solutions. If this should
accidentally happen, quickly wipe the spill away and rinse with plenty of
water.
-We do not recommend the use of a plastic washing up bowl, as particles
of grit which may be impregnated in the base of the bowl could scratch
surface of the sink.
-Do not chop food directly on the sink surface, as this will cause damage.
Wooden chopping boards are available for this purpose.
-Avoid dropping sharp objects into the sink, as this may scratch or damage
the surface.
-Leaving neat bleach in the sink can cause damage to all sinks even
stainless steel. If neat bleach should come into contact with this product,
please rinse thoroughly with warm soapy water.
