BOTTOM GRIDS

GENERAL CLEANING

A great way to protect the bottom of your kitchen sink

against wear and tear from everyday use, Kraus bottom

grids are made with premium stainless steel for durabil-

ity and easy maintenance.

To prevent build-up over time, rinse both sides of the

grid after using your sink, and pat dry with a microﬁber

cloth. For a more thorough cleaning, use water and a

mild liquid soap detergent (ammonia-free) or a product

from the “Products to Consider” section below. Apply

cleaner with a soft sponge or microﬁber cloth, then

thoroughly rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry with

a microﬁber cleaning cloth.

DEEP CLEANING

Although bottom grids are a highly useful and versa-

tile accessory, they can also be a magnet for dirt and

debris from all your kitchen tasks. For a deeper clean

from stuck-on food, you can do the following:

• Put it in your dishwasher! Kraus bottom grids are

dishwasher-safe – just make sure to take o the rubber

feet and bumpers. To ﬁt large grids into the dishwasher,

try removing the top rack and placing the grid in the

bottom rack

• Fill your sink with hot water and soap-suds and place

the grid face down to soak. Use a scrub brush and

dish soap, or a soft cleanser like Bar Keeper’s friend, to

tackle trouble spots, then rinse thoroughly with water

• Make a paste from baking soda and lemon and let it

sit on trouble spots, then scrub and rinse thoroughly

with water

THINGS TO AVOID

• DO NOT wash rubber feet and bumpers in the

dishwasher. These should be rinsed with water and/or

hand-washed with a mild detergent

PRODUCTS TO CONSIDER

• Dishwashing soap

• White vinegar + water solution 50/50

• Mild bleach solution

• Food-grade mineral oil
