Troubleshooting
Sink has a slight scratch
For minor scratches on the composite surface, try a non-abrasive cleaner or a specialized composite repair kit. Avoid aggressive scrubbing.
Water is not draining effectively from the drainer
Ensure the grooved drainer channels are clear of debris. Check that the sink is installed with a slight fall towards the bowl.
Discoloration on the surface
Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner and rinse thoroughly. If discoloration persists, it may be due to hard water deposits, which can be treated with a descaling solution suitable for composite materials.
Sink feels less glossy over time
Regular cleaning with appropriate mild detergents and buffing with a soft cloth can help maintain the gloss finish. Avoid harsh cleaning agents that can dull the surface.
