CLEANING THE BOWL - RING AND WORM
CARE OF TIN COATED PRODUCTS
(DO’S AND DON’TS)
1. Do not use abrasive cleaning materials, such as Brillo pads or metal scrapers. Tin is a soft metal and should be cleaned
with a soft cloth and dried.
2. Do not use a cleaning agent containing a high percentage of free alkali or acid.
3. Do not use detergent containing a high percentage of tri-sodium phosphate or meta-silicate. Tin is reactive to both.
4. Rinse well and dry thoroughly after washing to remove agents that may be reactive to tin.
5. If sterilizing agent containing chlorine is used, the tinned surface must be thoroughly rinsed. Chlorine is corrosive to tin.
6. Dry thoroughly after rinsing and store in a dry environment.
7. If water is exceptionally hard, drying will be necessary to prevent spotting.
