clean faucets that may dull the luster and attack
the chrome or special decorative finishes. Use
ONLY
mild soap and water, then wipe dry with
clean cloth or towel.
While cleaning the bathroom sink, protect the
faucet from any splattering of cleaner. Acids and
cleaning fluids will discolor or remove chrome
plating.
