Sink and Faucet Care

How to Clean SILGRANIT

Daily cleaning: to clean marks and everyday traces of use from your sink, all you
need is a sponge, mild dish soap or baking soda and water:

• Moisten the sponge under running water

• Add a small amount of dish soap or baking soda onto the soft side of the sponge

• With the soft side of the sponge, wipe in small, circular movements

• Rinse your sink with clean water and dry it with a microfiber cloth

Weekly cleaning: Limescale is a common challenge for Silgranit sinks. Did you know that most stains are
caused by discoloration adhering to limescale? When you remove limescale, you also remove stubborn
stains. We recommend removing limescale before starting any deep cleaning process. BLANCOCLEAN
Daily+ for Silgranit or any mild acid-based cleaners (like lemon or vinegar) will remove limescale.

• Pour BLANCOCLEAN Daily+ on the sink area to be cleaned

• Leave for 1-2 minutes to take effect

• Wipe with a wet cloth or soft sponge

• Rinse the surface with water and dry with a microfiber cloth

Deep cleaning: once or twice a year we recommend to deep clean your sink with a mild liquid/gel laundry detergent:

• Close the sink drain

• Distribute the liquid/gel laundry detergent evenly onto the sink surface

• Fill the sink with hot water (heated up to 60°C / 140°F)

• Leave it to work at least 2 hours or ideally overnight

• Drain the solution and rinse the sink thoroughly with water

• Dry with a microfiber cloth

How to Clean Stainless Steel

Daily cleaning: stainless steel surfaces are best cleaned immediately after use.
This helps prevent limescale. The process is quite simple:

• Squeeze some dish soap onto the soft side of a sponge

• Wipe the stainless steel surface in the direction of brushed finish

• Rinse with clean water and dry with a microfiber cloth

Weekly cleaning: BLANCOCLEAN Daily+ for stainless steel is a gentle formula that provides extra care to reduce
limescale and soap scum buildup. Regular use is recommended to extend the life of your BLANCO sink.

• Pour BLANCOCLEAN Daily+ directly onto the sink

• Let sit for 1-2 minutes to take effect

• Wearing a glove wipe with a wet cloth or soft sponge

• Rinse the surface thoroughly and dry with a microfiber cloth

Avoid these cleaning mistakes:

• Do not use aggressive cleaning agents, abrasive cleaners or bleach containing hypochlorite

• Do not use cleaning baths for silver

• Do not use prickly brushes or the scratchy side of sponges (especially pot scouring pads)

• Never use steel wool for cleaning

Aggressive cleaners and brushes can cause scratches and permanently damage the surface of your stainless
steel sink. Learn more cleaning tips for stainless steel by visiting our website: blanco.com/sscare

How to Clean Faucets

Daily maintenance: When turning off your faucet with wet hands, you almost always leave drops of water on it. These dry and leave
limescale behind. Visible limescale can form quickly, particularly in regions that have hard water. If you have hard water, you should dry
the surface of your faucet with a microfiber cloth after each use. This will allow you to extend the intervals between regular cleanings.

Regular cleaning: If limescale has formed on your faucet, treat this with a mild, organic acid, e.g., a solution of acetic or citric
acid. Important: before applying the substance, check whether your surfaces are resistant to acids. To remove limescale:

• Apply the cleaning agent to the soft side of a sponge and wipe the faucet down thoroughly

• Be sure not to leave acid-based cleaner on for longer than indicated on the package instructions

• Avoid lengthy, vigorous scrubbing with the rough side of a sponge, this can leave scratches

• Rinse the faucet with clean water and dry with a microfiber cloth
