LAMINATE

A wipe over with a clean soft damp cloth should be sufficient to keep all laminate surfaces clean. Soiled or light stains are removed with warm soapy water or with a common detergent, containing no abrasive or strongly acidic or alkaline ingredients.  It may be necessary to use a brush similar to a tooth or nail brush as well, where the surface is of a texture or embossed finish. Wax or other polishes are unnecessary and should not be used on decorative laminates.

FABRICATED STONE: (Granite, Marble & Reconstituted Stone)

Solid surface Bench tops should not be used as chopping boards. Solid surface materials will blunt Knives. Even though Solid Surface Bench tops are more heat resistant than most other bench top materials, hot pots pans or casserole dishes should not be applied directly to the surface. To keep a Granite surface clean, mild soap and warm water should be used. Avoid any kind of chemical cleaning products. To refresh a Granite surface clear car wax can be used.

THERMO- FORMED DOORS

Do not use abrasives, solvent-based or cream cleansers to clean your thermo-formed doors. Do not allow hot objects, such as saucepans, or irons, to come in to contact with your thermo-formed doors. Thermo-formed doors are low maintenance and can be easily cleaned using warm soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge (a toothbrush may be useful for hard to reach areas). Towel dry afterwards.

SOLID TIMBER BENCH TOPS & NATURAL TIMBER VENEERS

Timber is a natural product. Wood Veneered products which have been properly finished are easy to maintain. Kitchen furniture can usually be cleaned by wiping with warm soapy water while a furniture maintenance oil will enhance the appearance and longevity of most furniture finishes. Any accidental damage to the surface should be re-sealed immediately to prevent the ingress of moisture.
