Cleaning, care & repair of solid surface material

Solid surface material is easy to clean, hygienic and durable. With the right cleaning and care, the surface will remain aesthetically pleasing for many years.

If a scratch or damage does occur, solid surface material can be easily refurbished and repaired - a decisive advantage over many other materials.

Daily care & cleaning

The daily care of solid surface material is uncomplicated. For normal cleaning, it is sufficient to wipe the surface with a damp cloth and a mild cleaner. The surface should then be wiped dry to prevent water stains. If necessary, light soiling can also be removed with a gentle scouring powder and a soft sponge - always in a circular motion and without scratching.

Cleaning for heavy soiling

For heavier stains such as coffee or wine stains, a gentle scouring milk is usually sufficient: simply work in with a cloth or a non-scratching sponge in a circular motion, rinse thoroughly and rub dry. In many cases, more stubborn residues can also be removed with bleach. Limescale deposits around taps are best removed with a commercially available descaler.

 

With darker colour tones, signs of use may become visible more quickly, which is why more careful maintenance is recommended. Special stains such as nail polish can be removed using an acetone-free remover or a gentle scouring cream. Small burn marks or nicotine residues can also be removed using a non-abrasive scouring sponge or a small amount of scouring cream.

 

How to protect your solid surface

Solid surface material is resistant and damage can be easily avoided with simple measures. Hot pots or pans should never be placed directly on the surface - always use coasters or heat protection mats. Cutting work should also not be carried out on the surface, as knives can leave scratches: a cutting board is the safe choice here. Aggressive chemicals or solvents should not be used. If something does spill, rinse the area thoroughly with water immediately. This will keep the surface hygienic, functional and visually appealing.

Repair & refinishing

One major advantage of solid surface material is that it can be repaired. In many cases, small scratches can be sanded out with a sanding pad or fine sandpaper. Smaller dents or holes can be made almost invisible by professional filling and reworking.

Larger damage, such as cracks or burn marks, can also be repaired: The damaged area is milled out and replaced with a suitable piece of solid surface material, which is then bonded, sanded and polished. This creates a homogeneous, hygienic surface that looks as good as new. Even after many years, the surface can be completely refreshed by professional sanding and polishing - so solid surface material remains aesthetically pleasing and functional for decades to come.
