Long-Term Maintenance Guidelines

Even the most stable surface treatments require regular cleaning to prevent pitting from atmospheric pollutants.

Routine Cleaning:
Use a soft non-woven cloth with warm water and a neutral detergent.

Avoid Chemicals:
Never use cleaners containing chlorides, bleach, or abrasive pads, as these can damage protective coatings and cause micro-scratches.

Thorough Rinse:
After cleaning, rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry to prevent mineral deposits and water stains.

Cleaning Frequency:

  • Low-pollution areas: Every 6–12 months
  • Coastal or industrial areas: Every 3 months
