RECOMMENDED CLEANERS
X Clean your sink after each use with a soapy sponge, then
rinse thoroughly with warm water. You may dry it with a
towel or a dry cloth. This will eliminate water spots and
streaks, while the sink is in use.
X Abrasive bathroom cleaners will scour and dull the
ceramic or porcelain, causing it to lose lustre and shine.
Avoid using abrasives.
STAIN REMOVAL
X You may begin to notice stains on your porcelain sink,
but don’t be alarmed as they are most often caused
by minerals within your water supply. These mineral
deposits are known for causing stains by settling on the
surface of the ceramic.
Elimination of these stain spots are simple by using a
nonabrasive cleaner such as soft-scrub. It’s important
not to apply force while cleaning your sink, so that you
prevent any undo stress on the ceramic which can lead
to chipping and cracking in the future. Do not forcefully
scrub the stain, as you may scour the ceramic to an
irreparable state.
X Sprinkle baking soda on any rust spots or stubborn
stains. Rust spots will be most common on the base of
the sink near the drain. Use the wet sponge to scrub the
rust with the baking soda, creating a paste. Let the paste
sit for 10 minutes.
Rinse the sink with white vinegar. The vinegar will foam
when it touches the baking soda. This is normal and will
help remove any residual staining. Rinse the sink and dry
with a soft cloth.
CAUTION
X Avoid contact of your sink with products that are high
in acidity. Do not use any dishwashing detergents
or bleaches containing chlorine. Any of these types
of cleaners and chemicals can stain and weaken
the surface of your sink. If these products do come
in contact with your sink, rinse the sink thoroughly
immediately and dry with a towel or soft cloth.
