Scale
To remove scale left by water, simply use a
multipurpose cream detergent and a soft cloth.
Thicker scale may be removed by generously
applying 25% vinegar and hot water solution to
the stain. Rinse thoroughly with a sodium
bicarbonate and water solution, then follow up by
rinsing with water. Clean carefully.
Oil and Grease Stains
To remove oil and grease stains, use a mild
dishwashing liquid and hot water. Rinse
thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft
cloth. For more stubborn stains, ethyl alcohol,
acetone, or another non-halogenated solvent may
be used with care.
Stubborn Dirt and Burnt Grease
Use a multipurpose cream detergent and a soft
cloth.
Coffee and Tea Stains
Prepare a sodium bicarbonate solution and hot
water. Apply generously to stain and let sit for 15
minutes. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft
cloth.
Rust Stains
Apply a multipurpose cream detergent and rub
delicately with a soft cloth. If stain persists, it
may be necessary to apply a stainless steel-
specific product.
Fingerprints
Use a mild dishwashing liquid and warm
water. Rub delicately with a soft cloth. Window
cleaner may also be used.
Scratches
Apply a stainless steel-specific detergent/
polisher and buff with a soft cloth.
Important "Don'ts"
•
Do not use hydrochloric acid or any other
detergents containing chlorides on stainless
steel.
•
Do not use abrasive powder detergents that
could ruin the surface finish.
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
•
Do not use wool, abrasive brushes, or tools
that have previously cleaned other metals,
because as well as scratching the surface, they
can generate contamination and unattractive
stains.
•
Do not use silver cleaners.
GALLEY SINK
Acrylic
Care and Cleaning Instructions
The galley sink has been designed and
engineered to resist scratches and should not
stain under normal household use if used
properly.
To keep this product looking its best, we
recommend that you take a few easy precautions.
General Cleaning
Clean often with hot water and soap. If a
cleanser is necessary, make sure the product is
recommended for use on plastics.
Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners, ammonia, or
citric-based products as discoloration may result.
Rinse all food, beverage, or cosmetic residue
from the sink as soon as possible. Some residues,
if left to sit in the sink, may require the use of
detergent or a mild liquid or gel-type kitchen
surface cleaner.
If acids or medicine spill on the surface, wash
the spills immediately.
Hard-to-Remove Food and Beverage
Residue
For most stubborn stains, fill the sink about
one quarter full with a 50/50 solution of bleach
and water. After 10 or 15 minutes of soaking,
drain solution from the sink as you rinse both
sides and bottom.
NOTE: Do not use steel wool or metal scouring
pads.
Marks or Discoloration
A color-matched automotive scratch remover
compound may be used to remove stubborn
marks or discoloration. Always follow label
directions.
