Use and Care Manual

Olive oil can help remove streaks and
add shine to your stainless steel sink.
Dry your sink thoroughly and add a
few drop of olive oil to a paper tow-
el. Wipe the towel over the streaked
areas and rinse away with a wet cloth
and running water.
Undiluted white vinegar will help
remove ngerprints or hard water de-
posits. Simply pour the vinegar onto a
soft cloth and rub over the spots and
surrounding area. Rinse thoroughly
and dry.
TOUCH-UPS, SPOTS,
AND SHINE
More on Front q
Stainless Steel sinks should be
washed weekly with a mild de-
tergent or an ultra-mild abrasive
cleaner such as Soft Scrub
®
or Bar
Keepers Friend
®
to prevent buildup
of mineral deposits from the water.
Follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions for any store-bought product
and always scrub in the direction of
the grain/nish of the sink.
No matter how clean your rinse
water is, there will inevitably be
dissolved minerals and salts in
your rinse water. When the water
evaporates, these minerals/salts
are left behind creating unsightly
water spots which will dull the
appearance of the sink. Drying your
sink after rinsing will prevent these
water spots.
SANITIZATION
Corrosion is rare, but a very serious
threat to your sink. Construction
chemicals, solvents and household
cleaners contain chlorides and acids
which can damage stainless steel.
Products and cleaners that contain
chlorine bleach can stain or corrode
a stainless steel sink and so should
be avoided. Plumbing PVC solvents
or certain grout cleaners which
contain muriatic acid can also cause
problems. If any of these dangerous
chemicals get on the sink, rinse it im-
mediately with plenty of clean water
and dry thoroughly.
CORROSION
While the stainless steel that we
use for our sinks is very durable,
no stainless steel is completely
scratch-proof! We oer stainless
steel grids to help protect the
sink from scratches. Never use a
rubber mat in your stainless steel
sink. Water and other residue
become trapped between the
rubber and the sink, causing more
damage than good.
Fine scratches can be removed
using a mild abrasive cleaner such
as Bar Keepers Friend
®
. Always
scrub with the grain of the sink.
For deeper scratches, a product
such as Scratch-B-Gone
®
can be
used. Never use steel wool to
clean a stainless steel sink. Only
use nylon or other synthetic clean-
ing pads when scouring.
