Your Moen faucet should provide a beautiful touch of elegance to your home for many years to come with only minimal care. That’s because Moen faucets are constructed of quality materials and are specially coated to protect the finish during normal use. Caring for the Spot Resist™ faucet finish. To keep your kitchen faucet free of fingerprints and water spots, we developed the Spot Resist Stainless finish.
Care and cleaning of Moen® LifeShine® faucet finish. If you have the LifeShine finish on your new faucet, you have Moen’s guarantee that your finish will not tarnish, corrode or discolor. The LifeShine finishes include Polished Nickel, Polished Brass, Classic Stainless and Brushed Nickel. Caring for the LifeShine non-tarnish finish. The LifeShine finish can be cleaned with most household cleaners (including mild abrasives) when used according to their manufacturers’ instructions for use.
Care and cleaning for other faucet finishes. Chrome or Brushed Chrome finishes Most common household cleaners (including mild abrasives for Brushed Chrome) can be used, when used in accordance with the manufacturers’ instructions for use. However, all cleaners should be rinsed off thoroughly with water immediately after cleaning your faucet. Avoid using any harsh cleansers (e.g., lime scale removers) or pads/sponges that are unsafe for polished metallic surfaces.
Caring for your Moen shower fixture. You can maintain your Moen shower fixtures with the same cleaning tips recommended for Moen faucets. But if you have a showerhead that is spraying unevenly, it may be clogged with mineral deposits. Unscrew the swivel ball nut using a wrench or channel-type pliers. Be sure to wrap the jaws of the tool with masking tape or use a cloth to prevent scratching the finish.
Do not use bleach. Even when diluted, bleach can cause corrosion when exposed to stainless steel for extended time periods. If bleach does come in contact with your sink, rinse thoroughly. NOTE: Water quality can also affect the appearance of your sink. Where hard water or water with high iron content is present, a brown stain that looks like rust may appear. In areas with water that has high concentrations of minerals or oversoftened water, a white film may appear on the sink.
