ABOUT YOUR FINISH:
These nishes are powder coated color nishes. They have
NO ADDITIONAL PROTECTIVE COATING. These nishes
are not considered durable nishes and can be scratched,
chipped or scued. If the exterior color coating is dam-
aged, the exposed metal base will oxidize. Any use of an
abrasive cleanser, or any abrasive pad, cloth or sponge
can remove or dull the color coating and damage the
nish. Some available sink cleaners with bleach, soaps,
and hand lotions will damage the nish, as can acidic organic cleansers. Always wipe your
xture down with a clean soft cloth and keep it clean and dry after use.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
It is the responsibility of the customer to check for any material nish defects BEFORE
installation.
SUGGESTED FINISH MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE:
1. Do not allow water spots to dry on the xture. Keep the surface clean and dry after use.
2. Periodic cleaning can be done by using a mild diluted glass cleaner (we recommend
Windex). Apply the mild cleaner to a soft clean cloth, and periodically wipe your xture
down to remove water spots and surface debris.
3. Never use cleaners with bleach, abrasives, or vinegar. Never use any type of abrasive pad
or sponge.
ABOUT YOUR FINISH:
These nishes are considered Living Finishes and have
NO PROTECTIVE COATING on them. Living nishes are
nishes that have a very shallow patina on their surface.
Essentially, the nish is what nature would do to the sur-
face over a long period of time. The nishes are intended
to change with time and generally darken slightly where they are not being touched, and
highlight where the high use points are on the xture. Hand oils, soaps, and acidic uids
and cleaners can damage the nish. These nishes are not durable, and are easily scratched
or scued. Any type of astringent cleaner or any type of abrasive cleanser, pad, cloth or
sponge will damage the nish. To help keep the surface on the xture from oxidizing in
the packaging, Waterstone initially applies a wax to the nish surface to help protect and
prevent the nish from exposure to air and oxidizing prior to installation.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
It is the responsibility of the customer to check for any material nish defects BEFORE
installation. Waterstone does not warranty these nishes AFTER the xture has been
installed.
SUGGESTED FINISH MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE:
1. Do not allow water spots to dry on the xture. Keep the surface clean and dry after use.
2. Periodic cleaning can be done by using a micro-crystalline wax (we recommend Renais-
sance Wax). Apply the wax with a soft non abrasive tissue paper, and gently bu the wax
with a soft clean cloth to help remove surface spots and add a protective coating the nish.
3. Never use cleaners with bleach, abrasives, or vinegar. Never use any type of abrasive pad
or sponge.
ABOUT YOUR FINISH:
Waterstone’s stainless steel xtures are actually made of
solid stainless. This nish has NO PROTECTIVE COATING on it. Stainless steel is by its ma-
terial nature very tarnish resistant, but by no means tarnish or stain proof. This nish will
indeed oxidize naturally over time and react to its environment, and in a reaction to some
chemical cleaners that have bleach in them rusting can be induced on the nish. Keep your
stainless xture wiped clean and dry, and use only a cleaner specically made for stainless
steel. Trapped moisture on the surface of your nish can lead to staining. Astringent clean-
ers, chlorine, bleach, along with acidic based organic cleansers are potentially harmful to
stainless steel nishes.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
It is the responsibility of the customer to check for any material nish defects BEFORE
installation.
SUGGESTED FINISH MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE:
1. Do not allow water spots to dry on the xture. Keep the surface clean and dry after use.
2. Periodic cleaning can be done by applying a “stainless steel cleaner” with a soft clean
cloth to gently remove surface spots and brighten the nish.
3. Never use cleaners with bleach, abrasives, or vinegar. Never use any type of abrasive pad
or sponge.

ABOUT YOUR FINISH:
These nishes have a clear protective
coating on them. Even though they have
a protective coating, they are only con-
sidered semi-durable. If the outside clear
coating is scratched or damaged in any
way, the base metal nishes exposed will
oxidize. Any use of an abrasive cleanser,
or any abrasive pad, cloth or sponge can
remove or dull the protective coating and
damage the nish. Some available sink
cleaners with bleach, soaps, and hand
lotions will damage the nish, as can
acidic organic cleansers. Always wipe your
xture down with a clean soft cloth and
keep it clean and dry after use.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
It is the responsibility of the customer to check for any material nish defects BEFORE
