For aftercare, ensure water-tightness around sinks and hobs with silicone sealant. Wipe clean with regular household cleaners, avoiding scrubbing and immediate wiping of spillages to prevent staining. Protect the vinyl from sharp objects by using worktop savers. While heat resistant to 75°C, avoid direct contact with hot pans and keep away from open flames. D-C-Fix products are made in Germany, ensuring high standards of quality and performance.
