Maintenance Tips

• Clean daily with mild soap + soft sponge – Keeps the TRU16 16-gauge stainless steel surface clean, hygienic, and streak-free.
• Rinse and dry after use – Prevents water spots, limescale buildup, and keeps the brushed finish looking uniform.
• Avoid harsh chemicals & abrasives – No bleach, ammonia, or steel wool; these can damage the protective finish and NoiseDefend layers.
• Wipe in the direction of the grain – Maintains the clean brushed stainless steel appearance and reduces visible scratches.
• Use the protective bottom grid – Helps prevent dents and scratches from buckets, tools, or heavy laundry loads.
• Clean corners and drain regularly – Easy-clean rounded corners still benefit from routine rinsing to prevent residue buildup.
• Flush drain weekly with warm water – Helps prevent lint, debris, and utility-room buildup.
• Descale occasionally if needed – Use diluted vinegar or stainless steel cleaner to remove mineral deposits, then rinse thoroughly.
• Wipe surrounding topmount rim – Prevents grime buildup where sink meets countertop, keeping installation area clean.
