Cleaning & Care Instructions
VITREOUS CHINA:
Vitreous china can be cleaned with a range of cleaning agents designated for bathroom
maintenance: only strong acids and abrasive agents should be avoided in order to prevent
discoloration and scratches in the glazed surface. Wash with detergent and warm water and rinse.
Black marks in the glaze created by contact with metal elements can be removed with very fine
steel wool. The marks should be damped with water or glass cleaner and rubbed with steel wool
until it is removed (this may take longer than a couple of minutes).
Lime deposits may be removed by a solution of vinegar and water. Bathroom fixtures should be
disinfected weekly with a solution of chlorine bleach and water or a spray-on disinfectant or by using
disinfectant cleaning foam. Rust stains can be removed by using commercial rust remover or by
using a solution of 1 tablespoon oxalic acid crystals (poison), dissolved in ½ cup warm water. Apply
to stain, allowing to stand a few minutes, and then rinse well.
ACRYLIC & SOLID SURFACE:
Acrylic and solid surface is non-porous so liquids cannot penetrate it. Use water with dish soap or an
ammonia-based cleanser (such as glass cleanser).Wipe away water stains with a damp cloth and
sponge and dry with a towel. Occasionally wipe sinks and bowls with diluted household bleach (1/1
water/bleach solution) to disinfect. Surfaces exposed to acetone-based polish removers and paint
removers should be promptly flushed with water. To remove stains, use Soft Scrub(r) diluted bleach
and a sponge to rub in circular motion. If the area is dull in contrast with the surrounding surface, use
a white polishing compound with a sponge to get a higher gloss. To remover cuts and scratches,
sand with 400-grit (30 micron) or 600-grit (20 micron) sandpaper; buff with polishing pad at a low
speed (1,500 - 2,000 rpm) polisher equipped with a wool pad; finish with wax.
We would like to thank you for your purchase and are confident that you will be able to
enjoy our products for many years to come!

Installation Instructions for Wall-mounting Sinks
1. In order to provide proper support for wall-mounting a sink, it's usually necessary
to remove a small section of drywall so you can access the wall studs and attach
blocking between them.
2. Based on the sink’s dimensions and mounting height (usually 30-33 inches above
floor), decide where support will be needed.
3. Remove the drywall in that area and install 2-by-6 or 2-by-8 blocking between the
wall studs. Then using 3 1/2” galvanized common nails, toenail the blocking to
the studs and repair the drywall.
4. If the studs cannot be used then ¾” plywood support behind the finished wall can
also provide the necessary support.
5. Place the sink onto the desired
position on the wall and mark the
wall through the mounting holes
on the sink. Then drill pilot holes
for the mounting bolts, using a
masonry bit if the wall is tile.
6. Screw the wood threaded part
of the mounting bolts into the
pilot holes so that the machine
threaded portion is sticking out of
the wall.
7. Install the faucet and drain
assemblies onto the sink.
8. Place the sink onto the mounting
bolts, making sure that the sink is
positioned properly and
completely level.
