What we need to know about the care of stone resin sanitary ware is that the use of corrosive cleaning agents or hard abrasive particles in cleaning solutions can easily damage the shell.

The internal surface of the washbasin is prone to the formation of calcium deposits.

A condition that cannot be resolved even if you have installed a fine filter.

If you have a wash hand basin in light coloured artificial stone,

it is highly recommended that you do not leave unfinished coffee,

beet juice and other colouring solutions on its surface.

If the sink is not cleaned immediately, persistent stains and stains will begin to form on its underside.

It will be difficult to deal with it in the future.

In addition, over time taps cause surface corrosion.

Rusty stains are one of the most difficult stains to clean.

For stains that are particularly resistant to staining,

it is recommended to stock up on special detergents designed for cleaning composite surfaces.

Using them is very simple: a small amount of detergent must be applied to the entire surface of the washbasin and rinsed after 10 minutes.

Likewise, any chlorine-based bleach is a good way to resist persistent stains and stains.

Decontamination will be more effective when using a melamine sponge, which produces a special foam.

When the foam is formed, one fragment of the sponge opens and the other closes,

giving rigidity and elasticity, and this sponge can clean almost any surface.

For example, it is not recommended under any circumstances to use liquids or gels to clean stone resin.

You can clean black, greasy films and other contaminants.

It is important to pre-dissolve the soda in water and keep it at a thin consistency.

Next, apply the mixture to a rag and distribute it around the sink. Adding soda is not recommended.

Leave for a few minutes, then rinse the surface and you can repeat the process.

4. Cleaning limescale

Water is often present in the kitchen space and can cause lime deposits to appear.
