Care and Maintenance
 

Routine care

There are three types of countertop finishes: matte/satin, semi gloss and high-gloss.
*All Corian ® sinks and bowls have the matte/satin finish. Soapy water or
ammonia-based cleaners will remove most dirt and stains from all types of finishes.
However, slightly different techniques must be used to remove difficult stains,
depending on the finish. Follow the recommendations in the chart to properly
care for your type of finish.

Preventing heat damage

To prevent heat damage, always use a hot pad or a trivet with rubber feet to
protect your Corian ®. Hot pans, as well as some heat-generating appliances
like frying pans or crockpots, can damage the surface if a hot pad or trivet is
not used.

Removing cuts and scratches

Because the solid beauty of Corian ® goes all the way through, Corian ® surfaces
are completely renewable. You can remove minor cuts and scratches yourself by following the instructions noted in the chart.

Preventing other damage

In most cases, Corian ® can be repaired if accidentally damaged. However, be sure to follow the guidelines here to prevent any permanent damage to Corian ®.

Avoid exposing Corian ® to strong chemicals, such as paint removers, oven cleaners, etc.
If contact occurs, quickly flush the surface with water.

Remove nail polish with a non-acetone-based nail polish remover and flush with water.

Do not cut directly on Corian ® countertops.

Run cold water when pouring boiling water into sinks.
