Care instructions - Solid Brass sinks and fittings

RAW BRASS SINKS & FITTINGS 

Raw brass products are made of raw brass which is a living material and will age and patinate in time, depending on its environment and level of care. The process of oxidisation is influenced by exposure to water and dampness in the air and will result in sink and fittings gradually getting darker. This process can be slowed down by regular daily care and use of wax sprays like Aristowax Non-silicone Woodsilk. Please note that our pre-patinated raw brass products are supplied pre-waxed with special coating to help slow down the colour change. 

DAILY CLEANING

The raw brass products should be wiped down with wet cloth after each use, any food residue should be removed without using abrasive materials or chemicals, and finished off by drying the surface with soft cloth.

PERIODIC CARE
Raw brass surfaces can be sprayed with non-silicone wax such as Aristowax Woodsilk. 
 

LACQUERED BRASS SINKS & FITTINGS 
Lacquered brass products are made of solid brass and its surfaces protected by clear electrophoretic lacquer and cured in industrial oven, which enables retention of original colour subject to appropriate care. 

DAILY CLEANING
Lacquered brass products should be wiped down with wet cloth after each use, any food residue should be removed without using abrasive materials or chemicals, and finished off by drying the surface with soft cloth. 

PERIODIC CARE
Lacquered brass surfaces can be sprayed with non-silicone wax such as Aristowax Woodsilk.
