Worktop After Care

• Heat ~ Boiling water and hot cooking splashes will do no harm. Do not place cooking utensils, taken straight from a hot oven or hob, directly on the surface. Always use suitable protection against direct contact with excessive heat.
  
• Scratching ~ Crockery and normal kitchen utensils sliding around will do no harm. The surface can be damaged by scratching or cutting with knives or other sharp utensils. It is recommended that a protective mat or chopping board be used.
  
• Staining ~ FORMICA and other laminate worktops resist most household chemicals, including alcohol and cosmetics, but some chemicals and strong dyes can cause damage and discolouration. If spillage occurs of such things as beetroot juice, concentrated fruit juices, dyes, chemicals, descaling solutions or sanitary cleaners, wipe off immediately and rinse area thoroughly.
  
• Cleaning ~ FORMICA and other laminate worktops should be maintained by cleaning with water and detergent. Persistent marks can be removed by using a suitable cream cleaner, but harsh scouring powders and abrasive pads should be avoided. Stubborn stains in deep textured surfaces can be removed by using household bleach. A nylon bristle handbrush is also effective in removing persistent marks from textured and dimensional finishes.
  
• Moisture ~ Water will not harm the surface in any way, but excess water may effect the adhesive and core material underneath - so do not allow to lie on the surface where it may seep into joints.
