Installation Guide
Verify that your existing cabinet base measures at least 36 inches wide to accommodate the 31.5 by 18-inch frame.
Use the included mounting clips and professional silicone adhesive to secure the undermount sink firmly against the underside of your solid surface countertop.
Attach standard 3.5-inch plumbing connections and the provided basket strainer to the center drain placements.
Wipe the stainless steel surface dry with a soft cloth after use to maintain the lustrous satin finish and prevent water spot buildup.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Cleaning Wash the basin regularly with mild soap, warm water, and a soft sponge to remove everyday residue.
Stain Removal Use a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner or baking soda paste applied in the direction of the grain line for stubborn marks.
Water Spot Prevention Towel dry the sink after each heavy use to preserve the lustrous satin finish and highlighted rim.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals Never use chlorine bleach, steel wool, or abrasive scouring pads, as they can scratch or pit the metal surface.
Protect the Finish Lift pots and pans rather than sliding them across the basin floor to minimize minor surface scuffs over time.
