Troubleshooting
Powder is clumping or not dispensing evenly.
Ensure the powder used is fine and dry. If clumping persists, check if any moisture has entered the shaker and ensure it is completely dry. Shake gently with a light touch.
Shaker is difficult to open or close (if applicable to a specific lid design).
Gently twist and pull. If resistance is felt, ensure no powder residue is causing it to stick. Clean the rim and lid edge.
Water spots or dullness on the finish.
Polish the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn spots, use a specialized stainless steel cleaner, following the product instructions, and dry thoroughly.
