Care Guide
REGULAR CLEANING / MAINTENANCE
- All of our bathtubs have a smooth finish and are solid all the way through.
- All of our baths are hand crafted so some mild colour variation may occur.
- Baths arrive fully sealed and can be easily cleaned with normal gentle household cleaners.
- Never use BLEACH, JIFF, AJAX or any type of abrasive cleaners, never use solvent like acetone as these will remove the sealer and will lead to stains.
- When filling your bath, always run the water using hot and cold at the same time so as not to shock the stone with too much heat as the stone will be cold to begin with (especially in cold weather).
- Do not use bath bombs, Epsom salt or magnesium, essential oils in your bath as it may remove the seal and create stains / marks.
- Do not leave water in your bath overnight as it may create marks.
- Do not use hair dye in or over the bath as it may stain the surface.
- If you do not intend installing your bath straight away, you must cover it, so nothing enters the bath surface and cause staining.
REMOVING STAINS AND BUILDUPS
- Even with regular cleaning, you may experience stains or buildups. This will depend on the hardness of your water, on the frequency at which you use your bath and on the products you have added to your bath water.
- If you notice mineral deposits (which look like whitish calcium stains), use a mix of 50% cleaning white vinegar and 50% water. Dip a cloth into the mix and apply it on the affected area for a few minutes. Thoroughly rinse and dry. We recommend testing this on a small area first.
- If you notice soap scum, mix water and baking soda to make a paste. Apply to the affected area for a few minutes. Thoroughly rinse and dry. Thoroughly rinse and dry. We recommend testing this on a small area first.
