Maintenance Tips

• Use a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner or polish to maintain shine and prevent oxidation.

• Always clean in the direction of the grain to avoid fine scratches.

• Avoid harsh chemicals (bleach, chlorine) that can dull or damage the stainless finish.

• Immediately remove water spots or spills from detergents to prevent staining.

• Check and tighten mounting hardware occasionally to ensure the panel stays securely aligned.
