Troubleshooting
Utensil feels sticky after washing
Ensure all soap residue is rinsed off. If dishwasher safe, try running through a cycle again, ensuring proper detergent usage.
Utensil has minor surface scratches
Light surface scratches from normal use are common. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbers. The non-scratch coating is designed to protect cookware, not remain pristine indefinitely.
Utensil discoloration
Discoloration may occur with prolonged contact with highly pigmented foods (e.g., tomato sauce, turmeric). Wash immediately after use. Gentle scrubbing with a mild cleaner might help, but avoid harsh chemicals.
