Suggestions for the Care a nd Clea ning of your Elkay Stainless Steel Sink

RECOMMENDED CLEANSERS

Elkay has tested general household cleansers to measure their effectiveness in cleaning stainless steel sinks. The most aggressive cleansers consist of Bar Keeper’s Friend, Zud and Lawrence Right Work. Other cleansers, which are still effective, but less aggressive include Ajax, Comet, Shiny Sinks Plus, Luneta, Soft Scrub, Mr. Clean, Maas and Flitz. For everyday cleaning we recommend using Elkay’s Stainless Butler Stainless Steel Clea formula is safe and effective for day to day cleaning. So to help maintain the beautiful finish of your stainless steel sink, use one of the cleansers that Elkay recommends.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROPER MAINTENANCE

• Do…Rinse thoroughly after each use. “Thorough” rinsing can be done by running water for a few minutes and rubbing the cleaned area with a clean sponge.

• Do…Towel dry after each use to prevent mineral deposits from building up on th

• Do…Clean the sink once a week, being sure to rub in t of the satin finish grain lines, using an Elkay recommended cleanser.

• Do…Use an Elkay bottom grid or rinsing basket to “protect” the finish. Bot tom grids and rinsing baskets can remain in the sink and will not cause rusting or pitting.

• Do Not…Rub the sink across the satin finish lines. Scouring across the satin finish lines can damage the original sink finish.

• Do Not…Allow soap or other h surface of the sink. Most brands contain chemical additives which will affect the original finish.

• Do Not…Use solutions of c hlorine bleach a Chlorides, which are found in most soaps, detergents, bleaches, and cleansers, are very aggressive to stainless steel. If left on the sink too long they can cause surface pitting.

• Do Not…Use a steel wool pad to clean your sink. If a more abra- sive product is needed, use a green Scotc rub in t he direction of the satin finish grain lines. Steel wool pads have a tendency to break apart and small particles of steel can become embedded in the surface of the sink. The steel particles will rust and w

• Do N ot…Use rubber mats or dishpans in the sink. Leaving rubber mats or dishpans in the sink can lead to surface rust or possible pitting. However, if you insist on using mats or dishpans, plea remove them after each use and rinse thoroughly.

• Do Not…Leave wet sponges, cloths, or cleaning pads on the sink. This can lead to surface rust .

Following these recommendations for the care and cleaning of your stainless steel sink will insure that it will provide you with many years of service.

CHLORIDES

Today, chlorides are found in most all soap, detergents, bleaches and cleansers; chlorides can be aggressive t o stainless steel. However, chlorides are very water sol your sink after each use to remove any chloride residue and a weekly cleaning is all that is required to keep your sink looking bright and shiny.

SCRATCHES

Like many metallic surfaces, your stainless steel sink will scratch. These are merely usage scratches and over time will blend into the overall finish of your sink wit h proper cleaning.

KNIVES

Your sink is designed to serve as many things but not as a cutting board or chopping block. This type of use will lead to deep scratches in the sink finish and will dull your knives. Elkay does offer various cutting boards which will provide an additional work area.

WATER QUALITY

The quality of your water can affect your sink’s appearance. If your water has a high iron content, a brown surface stain can form on the sink giving the appearance of rust. Additionally, in areas with a high concentration of minerals, or with over-softened wate may develop on the sin the sink be towel dried after use, and again, on a weekly basis, t he sink should be cleaned using a recommended cleanser.
