The Solid Surface was created for a lifetime of easy care. Just follow the
simple guidelines listed here to the keep countertop surface looking nice.
Routine Care:
The motorhome countertops are finished with one type of finish: matte/satin.
All solid surface sinks and bowls have a matte/satin finish. Soapy water or ammonia-
based cleaners will remove most dirt and stains from all tops and bowls. However,
slightly different techniques must be used to remove different stains. Follow the
recommendations below.
Cleaning the Countertops:
• Most dirt and stains: Use soapy water or ammonia-based cleaner.
• Water marks: Wipe with damp cloth and towel dry.
• Difficult stains: Use soft scrub and a Grey
Scotchbrite Pad.
• Disinfecting: Occasionally wipe surface with diluted household
bleach (one part water and one part bleach).
Cleaning the Solid Surfaces Sink:
Occasionally clean by using Soft Scrub Liquid Cleanser and a Grey Scotchbrite
pad. Scrub the sink, rinse and towel dry. Do this as often as necessary.
Removing Cuts and Scratches:
Because the beauty of the surface goes all the way through the Solid Surface,
countertops are completely renewable. Use the following instructions to remove
minor cuts and scratches.
• Sand with 180 grit and then 320 grit sandpaper until the scratch is gone.
• Restore the finish using a Grey
Scotchbrite pad. Never sand hard in one
small area. Feather out lightly to blend restoration.
Preventing Heat Damage:
The Solid Surface withstands heat better than ordinary surface materials;
however, hot pans and some heat-generating appliances, such as frying pans or
crockpots, can damage the surface. To prevent heat damage always use a hot pad
or a trivet with rubber feet to protect the surface. In most cases the surface can be
repaired if it is accidentally damaged.
TIPS: Avoid using strong chemicals on the Solid Surface such as
paint removers or oven cleaners. If these chemicals come in
contact with the Solid Surface, quickly wash with water. Avoid
contact with nail polish or nail polish remover. If contact is
made, quickly wash with water.
NOTE: Do not cut directly on the solid surface. Always run cold
water into the Solid Surface sink when pouring boiling water
into the sink.
