Troubleshooting
Visible water spots after dishwasher cycle
Ensure you are using a rinse aid and that the dishwasher filter is clean to prevent hard water mineral deposits.
Scuff marks on the plate surface
These are often metal transfer marks from cutlery. Use a specialized ceramic cleaner or a mild abrasive paste to gently buff the marks away.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These plates require no special setup upon arrival; however, a quick wash before the first use is recommended. Because they are dishwasher safe, you can integrate them into your existing cleaning routine without issue. To ensure the longevity of the reactive glaze and the edge-chip warranty, avoid using abrasive steel wool pads. When storing in a stack, ensure they are placed flat rather than angled to minimize the risk of surface scratching. They are compatible with standard commercial and residential dishwashers, but verify your dishwasher tray height to accommodate the 270mm diameter.
