Care and Cleaning

For best results, keep the following in mind when caring for your KOHLER product:

•Use a mild detergent such as liquid dishwashing soap and warm water for cleaning. Do not use abrasive cleaners that may scratch or dull the surface.

•Carefully read the cleaner product label to ensure the cleaner is safe for use on the material.

•Always test your cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area before applying to the entire surface.

•Do not allow cleaners to sit or soak on the surface.

•Wipe surfaces clean and rinse completely with water immediately after cleaner application. Rinse and dry any overspray that lands on nearby surfaces.
