From sinks to appliances, counters to cabinet hardware, stainless steel remains a popular kitchen trend, favored for its sleek look and durability. Yet, even with careful use, stainless steel sinks are prone to get scratched. However, over time as the sink ages, scratches will become less apparent and in fact blend into the surface. Minor scratches on the inside surfaces of the bowl may be blended into the sink by lightly rubbing a Scotch-brite pad in the direction of the finish grain. Be sure to rinse thoroughly with water and towel dry after this procedure, removing any particles left over from the Scotch-brite as you rinse.

If water is left standing anywhere on your stainless steel sink, it will evaporate and leave a film (spots) on the surface of the steel. This film can be removed with regular dish soap and water and a soft cloth. For removing heavier residue, you may use a mild solution of vinegar and water. Be sure to rinse thoroughly and towel dry.

Sink tip:

Regularly rinse and towel dry your sink after use to keep its surface exposed to oxygen. (Oxygen reacts with chromium in the steel to form a strong, highly protective chrome oxide film on the surface of your sink. It is this film that make

Stainless steel is a wonderful material that does not rust. However, if given the opportunity, iron particles that do rust will bond to its surface from metal cooking implements for instance or even from metal particles in the water. Pure stainless steel sinks, specially the sinks which are 16 gauge and 18 gauge sinks (Under mount sinks) reacts with the environment strongly than top mount sinks which are 20 gauge or 22 gauge. ( Low numbers means the thickness is less). When the thickness of the sink is greater, properties of stainless steel are greater as well. As a result thicker gauge stainless steel sinks gets a thin film builds up on the surface of the sink.

Initially this thin build up is not visible, but if regular cleaning is not done on a periodic manner, it could be visible over time as dull cloudy patches on the sink bowl surface. This is more visible on more gleaming, smooth surface sinks. Over time this builds up magnetic properties to attract tiny particles of metal kitchen utensils, metal pots and pans, which come off them with usage. The magnetic properties of the thin film that has got build on the surface of the sink bowl makes those metal particles get stuck to the surface of the sink bowls of the stainless steel sink. These tiny metal particles eventually will rust and make stain on the sink bowl.

When regular periodic cleaning does not remove stains on your sink, we recommend that you use “Flitz” metal cleaner and polish, to take out the stains of your sink. This will also, take out light scratches on the sink.

• Rinse your sink bowl well.
• Towel dry the sink bowl.
• Apply a few spots (always start on small area of the sink bowl, instead of applying the paste on the entire sink bowl, and gradually move to another area of the sink bowl once you complete the area you first started ).
• Use a dry light color (preferably a 100% cotton cloth – static proof) to buff the spots of the paste. When buffing you should follow the grain of the steel. End of your cleaning you will see the light color cloth that you sue to clean the sink has become black color. This shows that you have successfully cleaned your sink. This process has taken away the thin layer that was covering your sink, together the rust spots if you had any.
• Once you complete buffing the sink take another clean cloth and wipe the sink thoroughly to remove any black sediments remaining on your sink.
• Finally rinse your sinks well, and you will be surprised to see how your sink has transformed into a clean and gleaming sink, almost like brand new once again.
