      Tips to clean my enemelled cooking appliances
      After use always clean the surface with soap and hot water followed by a clean water rinse and drying with a soft cloth to prevent spotting. For more stubborn dirt or grease a non-abrasive multi-purpose cream cleaner, such as CIF, may be used. The quality of water can affect your sink's appearance. If the water has high iron content, a brown surface stain can form on the sink giving the appearance of rust. Additionally, in areas with a high concentration of minerals, or with over-softened water, a white film may develop on the sink. To combat these problems,
      towel dry the sink after use, and clean at least once every week . Surface scratching will be most noticeable on highly polished components, in particular the drainer area of sinks where hard objects are placed. These marks are usually only superficial and can be removed with a
      proprietary stainless steel cleaner/polish. If the surface has a directional polished grain always clean along the grain and NOT across. Never use wire wool pads to clean the surface.
      Cleaning agents containing bleach should not be left in contact with stainless steel. This includes many of the new “trigger-dispense” products and some multi purpose cream cleaners. Also leaving rubber mats or dishpans in the sink can lead to surface rust or pitting, always remove them after use.
