How to Guide

Remove excess sealant from sink area or end splash. The
Formica
®
brand laminate surface of your new countertop
is highly resistant to staining, wear and heat. It is not, however,
completely impervious to chemicals, scratches and hot objects.
Cleaning. Formica brand laminate-clad countertops may be
cleaned with a clean, non-abrasive, damp cotton cloth and a
mild liquid detergent or household cleaner.
Heat Resistance. Avoid placing hot items on the counter-
top. Use a trivet or a hot pad.
Surface Care. Use a cutting board to avoid damaging surface.
