Swanstone CS-1616 - Installation - Manual (Page 10)

Care and Cleaning
The Swanstone products are stain and abrasion
resistant; however, the finish requires reasonable care.
Because cleaning products change over time, always
check the manufacturer’s instructions to make sure it is
compatible with solid surface acrylic. DO NOT use a
cleaner if the label indicates it should not be used on solid
surface acrylics. DO NOT use spray-on cleaners that
require daily use without immediately rinsing with water to
stop the chemical cleaning reaction because damage will
result and void the warranty.
Day-To-Day Cleanup
Simply wipe the surfaces with a clean towel to remove
watermarks and residues. All Swanstone products can
be cleaned with warm water, a soft cloth, and normal
household detergents or cleansers, such as Fantastic,
Formula 409, Clorox Clean-up, Handy Andy, Mr. Clean,
Dow Scrubbing Bubbles, Lysol Foaming Tub and Tile
Cleaner, Top Job, or Lestoil. Always rinse off cleaners
within five minutes of application.
Occasional scrubbing with household abrasive cleaners
ensures that the original luster is maintained.
Caulking Joints
Inspect caulking joints monthly for damage or any signs
of separation from the mating surface. Cracks in the
caulking will allow water to leak into the surrounding
surfaces. Reapply caulking to any joint showing
signs of wear or cracking. Failure to inspect and
repair caulking joints will void the warranty.
Surface Repair
Light Scratches
Use 400 grit sandpaper to remove light scratches in the
surface.
Deep Scratches or Gouges
For deeper scratches or gouges, use 220 or 320 grit
sandpaper. A “Scotchbright pad” can be used to blend
the repair into the surrounding area.
