Troubleshooting

Cutlery appears dull or tarnished.

This can happen over time, especially if not dried thoroughly after washing. Wash with a mild detergent and warm water, then dry immediately with a soft cloth. For stubborn dullness, a specialized stainless steel cleaner can be used sparingly.

Water spots visible on cutlery.

Ensure cutlery is dried completely with a soft cloth after washing. If using a dishwasher, consider using a rinse aid and check that the drying cycle is effective. Avoid leaving wet cutlery to air dry.

Minor scratches appearing on the surface.

Scratches can occur with regular use or if cutlery pieces rub against each other during washing or storage. To minimize this, avoid abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, and store pieces carefully to prevent them from knocking together.
