Operating the Sink
The BLANCO Precis sink is designed for everyday use in demanding kitchen environments. Its SILGRANIT material ensures high resistance to common kitchen challenges:
- Durability: Withstands heavy cookware, hot bakeware, and scuff marks.
- Hygienic Surface: The HYGIENIC+PLUS surface technology provides a protective shield against liquids and dirt, significantly reducing bacterial growth.
- Efficient Drainage: The rear-positioned drain optimizes the usable space within the bowl and allows for more storage beneath the sink.
Maintenance
To maintain the appearance and performance of your BLANCO Precis sink, follow these simple care guidelines:
- Daily Cleaning: Clean the sink regularly with mild soap and water. The non-porous SILGRANIT surface naturally repels dirt and liquids, making cleaning easy.
- Stain Removal: For stubborn stains, a mixture of baking soda and water can be used. Apply the paste, let it sit for a few minutes, then scrub gently and rinse thoroughly.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or strong chemical agents (e.g., drain cleaners containing sulfuric acid) as these can damage the sink's surface.
- Heat Protection: While the sink is heat resistant, avoid placing extremely hot items directly from the stove or oven onto the surface without a trivet, especially for prolonged periods.

Most common issues with the BLANCO Precis sink can be resolved with proper cleaning and care.
