TIPS FOR PROPER CARE:
Your new BAHN product is made out of anodized aluminum. Anodized aluminum requires special attention
when cleaning. Some cleaning products or procedures can actually remove the anodized treatment which will
lead to pitting in the aluminum.
Thoroughly clean the BAHN product often with a soft cloth, mild soap and
water. Regular cleaning keeps contaminates from building up.
Rinse thoroughly with FRESH water.
Use only metal protection products that are formulated for anodized alu-
minum.
DO NOT USE bleach or chlorides to clean the BAHN product.
DO NOT USE products containing abrasives to clean the BAHN product. Never use steel or brass wool, wire
brushes, polishing wheels, rubbing or polishing compounds on the Bahn product.
DO NOT USE concentrated alkaline based solutions to clean the BAHN product. Many detergents are alka-
line based.
