Solid surfaces may be cleaned with warm
water and mild soaps, such as those used for
hands or dishes. Non-abrasive household
cleaners such as FantastikÒ and Formula 409Ò
may also be used. Cleaning products
containing bleaching agents should not be
used on solid surface. Large quantities of
these agents and extended periods of
exposure may cause discoloration. Abrasive
cleaners (such as Comet®, Soft Scrub®, Bon
Ami®, etc.) should not be used on solid
surface except for removing tough stains,
minor scratches and burns.
If a stain develops on the surface, wipe
it away with soap and water or glass
cleaner. If a stain doesn’t respond to soap
and water, and your surface has a matte
finish, apply an abrasive cleanser and buff
with a Scotch-Brite® pad using a circular
motion. The same technique can be used for
cigarette burns, minor cuts and scratches.
For a gloss finish, you should contact
dealer or fabricator before attempting
repairs. (See Wilsonart Sink Tech Data,
Section 3 for sink maintenance information.)
Do not expose the surface to harsh
chemicals, such as paint remover,
turpentine, nail polish remover (acetone) or
stove and drain cleansers. If these
chemicals come in contact with the surface,
immediately wash them off with water, using
appropriate safety measures to avoid injury.
Always use a cutting board instead of
cutting directly on the surface. While minor
cuts and scratches can be repaired, care
should be taken to prevent them in order to
keep the surface looking good as new.
Hot pans and heat-producing appliances
(frying pans, baking pans, electric
skillets, crock-pots, coffee pots, etc.)
must be placed on a trivet with legs..
