Use and Care Manual

EMPIRE/EVEREST
Our stainless steel sinks are made of 304 stainless 18/8-chrome nickel content. Our
Heavy-duty 18 and 16-gauge stainless steel, nonporous, rust free will last a lifetime.
GENERAL CARE AND CLEANING
After each use rinse the sink with warm water and dry it with a soft cloth to prevent water
spots and mineral deposits.
THINGS NOT TO DO
Do no use steel wool, heavy abrasive pads or powders to scrub the sink . Harsh agents
such as bleach may ruin the finish.
SURFACE STAIN & RUST
Stainless steel does not rust. If your sink develops surface stains and rust spots use Bar
Keepers Friend or Flitz stainless steel cleaning products, which are available from your
local hardware store and supermarket.
SCRATCHES
Most scratches can be removed with Bar Keeper Friend and a Scotch Brite Pad. Always
rub with the grain. Do not rub against the direction of the finish on the sink, this may
damage the finish. If you have a deep scratch use pumice rubbing compound and follow
directions on package. Empire strongly recommends the use of its grids to protect the
bottom of your sink.
