5. Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will ensure the longevity and beauty of your ARIEL Hepburn vanity.

5.1. Countertop Care (Carrara Quartz)

• Daily Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a soft cloth and warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry to prevent water spots.
• Stain Prevention: Quartz is highly stain-resistant, but it is best to wipe up spills immediately, especially acidic liquids like lemon juice or wine.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, strong acids, alkalis, or harsh chemicals like oven cleaner, paint remover, or drain cleaner, as these can damage the surface.
• Heat Protection: While quartz is heat-resistant, always use trivets or hot pads under hot pots, pans, or heat-generating appliances to prevent potential damage.

5.2. Cabinet Care (Painted Wood)

• Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Wipe dry immediately to prevent moisture damage.
• Avoid Excess Moisture: Do not allow water to sit on the cabinet surfaces for extended periods.
• Protect from Scratches: Use felt pads under items placed on the vanity surface to prevent scratches.

5.3. Hardware Care (Matte Black)

• Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that can strip the finish.
