CARE & MAINTENANCE
Porcelain is both stylish and practical. Tait recommends porcelain as it is one of the best low maintenance, durable and reliable surface options.
Being non-porous, porcelain is hygienic, it offers stain, scratch and thermal shock resistance and is suited for use in external environments. Because colour is fired into the tile’s body, the colour will not fade even when exposed to direct sunlight and its colour-sucking UV rays.
In caring for your porcelain surface,
DO:
-Regular, basic cleaning with warm water, mild soap and a soft, non-abrasive cloth
-Use gentle, everyday multipurpose spray cleaner
-Immediately wash away stains such as red wine, food, oils and drinks
-For stubborn stains use a gentle, every day, non-abrasive, multipurpose spray cleaner, sugar soap, cream-based house cleaners or bicarbonate soda mixed with warm water
-Always dry your porcelain thoroughly after cleaning
DO NOT:
-Use cleaning products that contain acids, ammonia or other harsh chemicals
-Expose porcelain to permanent inks or dyes
-Use sharp utensils on a porcelain top
-Sit or stand on
When placing a furniture cover over a table for an extended period of time, it is recommended to first place an empty plastic pot plant in the centre of the table, then placing the furniture cover over the top. This will prevent the possibility of the furniture cover adhering to the table surface.
While porcelain is resistant to scratches, etches and stains, it is not damage proof. Careless handling, treatment or misuse of our products can result in damage and is not covered under our manufacturer’s warranty.
