Care & Maintenance
To clean the surface, wash with a mild dish washing liquid or powdered detergent; add warm water. Use a soft
dish cloth. Rinse with warm water and dry with cloth. Water is generally all that is needed. A quick wipe will clean
most stains.
For stubborn spots, make a paste with baking soda and water. The paste will be slightly abrasive. Work carefully
to keep from damaging the surface you are cleaning. Dip a soft bristle brush into the paste to cover the bristles.
Gently rub the spot with the brush, moving in a circular motion and pressing very lightly. You may also use a
Magic Eraser
®
stain remover following the manufacturer’s instructions for stubborn stain.
While contemporary laminate surfaces have durable nishes, you should not cut directly on the surface or lay any
utensils warmer than approximately 250°F on the countertop for extended periods of time. Hot pans and heat-
producing appliances (such as electric griddles and skillets), when set directly on the countertops, can damage
the countertop. Always use a hot pad or a trivet.
¡ Ketchup: Wipe up with a damp cloth. If the ketchup has dried, wash it off with mild detergent and warm water.
¡ Coffee: Wash off with mild detergent. For dried coffee stains, repeat as needed.
¡ Heat: Laminate surfaces are resistant to heat damage. However, prolonged exposure to high heat can cause
blistering, staining, or delaminating.
¡ Juices: Clean residue with mild detergent and water.
¡ Glue: Apply Goo Gone
®
to remove adhesives.
¡ Marker/Crayon: Wipe with a soft cloth with acetone.
