GENERAL CLEANING
To prevent water spots, clouding, and discoloration, rinse 
and wipe the inside of the sink with a microfiber cleaning 
cloth after every use. For a more thorough cleaning, use 
water and a mild liquid soap detergent (ammonia-free). 
Apply the cleaner with a soft sponge or nylon brush and 
scrub in circular motions. Remember to thoroughly wash 
away any extra soap left behind after cleaning.
HARD WATER SOLUTIONS & DEEP CLEANING
To prevent mineral deposits from forming on the sink 
in areas with hard water, rinse the inside of the sink 
and wipe it with a microfiber cleaning cloth after every 
use. To deep-clean tough stains, products to consider 
include: Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, Supreme Surface Scum 
& Mineral Deposit Remover. Make sure to follow the 
cleaning instructions provided by the product’s manu-
facturer.
THINGS TO AVOID
• DO NOT place pots, pans, or utensils straight from the 
stove directly on the sink surface
• DO NOT use cleaners containing any abrasive pow-
ders, bleach, ammonia, alcohol, or chlorine. These prod-
ucts may damage the sink surface
GRANITE KITCHEN SINKS
• DO NOT use any abrasive pads, steel wool, or wire 
brushes when cleaning the sink. Using these will dam-
age and/or wear down the sink surface
• DO NOT leave pots, utensils, or standing water in the 
sink, as this may cause rust stains on the surface of the 
sink
• Although Kraus granite and quartz composite sinks are 
highly heat resistant, placing hot items right from the 
stove or oven directly into the sink may cause surface 
discoloration. Consider using a trivet or rolling mat for 
extremely hot items to avoid potential heat damage
• DO NOT place hot items from the stove or oven direct-
ly into the sink. Consider using a trivet or rolling mat for
