Care and Cleaning Instructions for these Waterstone Finishes:
SS (Stainless Steel)
About Your Finish
Waterstone’s stainless steel xtures are actually made of solid stainless. is nish has NO PROTECTIVE COATING on it.
Stainless steel is by its material nature very tarnish resistant, but by no means tarnish or stain proof. is nish will indeed oxidize
naturally over time and react to its environment, and in a reaction to some chemical cleaners that have bleach in them rusting can be
induced on the nish. Keep your stainless xture wiped clean and dry, and use only a cleaner specically made for stainless steel.
Trapped moisture on the surface of your nish can lead to staining. Astringent cleaners, chlorine, bleach, along with acidic based
organic cleansers are potentially harmful to stainless steel nishes.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
It is the responsibility of the customer to check for any material nish defects before installation.
Suggested Finish Maintenance Procedures
1. Do not allow water spots to dry on the xture.
2. Periodic cleaning can be done by applying a “stainless steel cleaner” with a so clean cloth
to gently remove surface spots and brighten the nish.
3. Never use cleaners with bleach, abrasives, so scrub, Clorox, any type of abrasive pad or sponge.
