Care of external finishes
Nicolazzi products are all authentic finishes that have not been coated with any product. After each use, pat the
fixture down to remove any excess water. This will prevent any water spotting or mineral build-up. Use only soft
liquid soap and water to clean the surface. Use a soft brush to clean any gaps. Avoid any products that have
ammonia or alcohol like Windex, Jif or Ajax. These products can damage the finish leaving black or white spots.
Never use on abrasive products on tap ware or this will devoid the warranty.
Live Finishes DO NOT carry a warranty as they are living finishes and will change over time.
Raw Brass, Brush Brass ( To make the brass lighter again rub the brass tap with lemon juice, this will lighten the dark
colouring).
Shiny Brass, Polished Nickel has an ageing process and will tarnish over time.
Tuscan Brass is a living finish and also carries NO warranty. It will lighten with use. To extend the life of the finish,
apply Bruno’s Wax by patting it on, letting it dry and patting it off. Never rub or buff this finish.
WARNING: The use of cleaning products not recommended might irreparably harm the surfaces of the tap, which in
such cases are not covered by our warranty.
Lime scale build up
The tap is fitted with an aeration device in the Hot/Cold water outlet.
This may need occasional cleaning especially in hard water areas.

leaving the inner screen mesh immersed over night in vinegar
