Care and Cleaning Guide

GENERAL CLEANING
The smooth non-porous enamel surface is extremely
stain resistant, so you can simply wipe away most food
residue and liquids. For optimal results, we recom-
mend rinsing the inside of your sink and wiping it with
a microfiber cleaning cloth after every use. For a more
thorough cleaning, use water and a mild liquid soap
detergent or a product from the “Products to Consid-
er” 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.
HARD WATER SOLUTIONS & DEEP CLEANING
To prevent mineral deposits from forming on the sink in
areas with hard water, rinse the inside of the sink and
wipe it with a microfiber cleaning cloth after every use.
CHIPS AND CRACKS
Kraus Enamel Sinks are extremely resistant to chips,
cracks, and other damage caused by dropped items.
Should you experience damage to the enamel coat-
ing due to an exceptionally heavy impact, suitable
Porcelain-enamel chip repair kits can be found at
most home improvement stores
