VI. About Fireclay and Care
Fireclay sinks are made of clay fired at over 1,400°F, which causes clay to become stonelike. This produces a strong and durable material resistant to scratching, staining, fading and discoloration.
To clean, use a soft, non-abrasive sponge or a cleaning cloth. Add mild soap and warm water or a gentle all-purpose cleaner. Wipe
surface dry with a clean, soft cloth after each use. For tough stains, use non-abrasive liquid or cream bathroom cleaner.
Refrain from soaking dishes for long periods of time, and do not leave coee grounds or teabags in sink. These may otherwise cause
potential stains or damage to finish.
