Daily Cleaning:

- Wipe down the sink after each use to prevent water spots and mineral buildup.
- Avoid leaving acidic foods or strong chemicals in contact with the sink surface for extended periods.
Deep Cleaning:
- For stubborn stains, a mild abrasive cleaner specifically designed for granite composite sinks can be used. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Rinse thoroughly with water after cleaning to remove all cleaning agent residues.
Product Care Instructions: Hand Wash.
6. Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your kitchen sink.
- Slow Drainage: Check for obstructions in the drain or P-trap. Ensure the drain stopper is not partially closed.
- Water Spots/Mineral Buildup: Regularly wipe the sink dry after use. For existing buildup, use a solution of vinegar and water, then rinse thoroughly.
- Minor Scuffs: Due to the durable nature of SILGRANIT, minor scuffs are rare. If they occur, gentle scrubbing with a non-abrasive pad and a mild cleaner may help.
