The best way to clean a bronze sink
is with a solution of mild soap and
water. With a soft sponge, scrub
the entire sink using a circular
motion. Rinse and wipe-down with
a soft cloth. We recommend Green

dish soap.
SANITIZATION
Residual water can not only leave
spots, but it can damage the patina
nish of a bronze sink if left for
long periods of time. If you have
hard water, the bowl should be
wiped down with a soft cloth after
each use. A heavy solution of water
softener and hot water can also be
applied with a cloth and then dried
to reduce spotting.
WATER SPOTS
We do not recommend polish-
ing a bronze patina sink. Using
a polish, abrasives, or vigorous
scrubbing can strip o the hand-
rubbed nish.
Alternatively, applying a thin coat
of clear wax, such as Johnson’s
Clear Paste Wax
®
, every one to
three months can protect the
sink against water spots while
retaining its original luster. How-
ever, there is a trade-o to using
wax, as it will temporarily retard
the development of the natural
patina.

Bronze
Sinks
Bronze is a metal alloy com-
posed primarily of copper and tin
with traces of a few other metals.
Each of our bronze sinks comes
with a beautifully aged patina
baked into it, but it will continue
to oxidize as time passes cre-
ating an ever-changing antique
appearance. Some routine care
is required to protect this patina.
