This material is resistant to surface damage but like most things, better care will make for a longer life.REGULAR CLEANINGPrevent water spots by rinsing and wiping the inside of the bowl with a clean cloth after every use. If more thorough cleaning is required, use water and a mild ammonia-free liquid soap detergent. Apply the cleaner with a soft sponge or cloth, wipe the bowl then rinse thoroughly with warm water. Dry the bowl with a soft cloth.Removal of hard water deposits or limescale can be accomplished with a solution of 50% water and 50% vinegar. Apply the solution to the inside of the sink, then wipe and rinse thoroughly with warm water. Dry with a soft cleaning cloth.For tough stains like rust (caused by mineral deposits from the water supply) or hardened toothpaste residue, use a solution of baking soda and vinegar. Combine the two ingredients into a paste, and apply directly to the stained area. Let the paste sit for 5 minutes, then rinse with warm water and dry with a soft cleaning cloth.Never use any abrasive pads, steel wool, or wire brushes when cleaning your vitreous china sink.
