Care & Maintenance
Routine Cleaning Wash the titanium enamel surface weekly using warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft sponge.
Stain Prevention Rinse the tub thoroughly after each use to prevent soap scum and hard water mineral buildup.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals Never use abrasive scouring powders, steel wool, or harsh acidic cleaners that can dull the enamel gloss.
