Daily Cleaning: • Rinse with water • Wipe with a soft sponge and neutral detergent • Rinse thoroughly with hot water • Dry with a microfiber cloth Deep Cleaning: • Sprinkle with baking soda • Spray with white vinegar • Let it sit and scrub • Rinse thoroughly • Dry • Lightly wipe the sink surface with a small amount of stainless steel polish

It evaporates a metal target into ions, which are then deposited onto the surface of a 304 stainless steel sink, forming a dense, strong, and corrosion-resistant metal film. This film is very thin, yet possesses extremely high strength and adhesion, significantly enhancing the appearance and performance of the 304 stainless steel sink.

Undermount sinks are primarily fixed in the following ways: 1. Wrap-around metal brackets (common on stone countertops) 2. Structural adhesive bonding under the countertop (glass glue/marble glue/epoxy resin) 3. Countertop weight pressing structure (some sinks have pre-drilled edges that prevent upward passage) Based on the above reasons: Undermount sinks almost never can be removed upwards; replacement must be done by disassembling from below and removing them downwards.

Minor Scratches are Not Permanent Most of the fine scratches seen on stainless steel kitchen sinks are actually minor surface wear. These scratches are typically: • Very shallow • Irregularly distributed • More noticeable when the angle of light changes • Can be faded or even disappeared with appropriate methods

In actual design and installation, the standard depth of undermount kitchen sinks is typically between 18 cm and 25 cm (approximately 7 to 10 inches). However, this is only a general reference range. The specific choice should be made in conjunction with the kitchen countertop height and the user's height.

Moderately increasing the thickness can indeed enhance the stability and lifespan of the sink. However, beyond a certain range (such as exceeding 1.5mm), the benefits diminish significantly. For example: • Limited increase in strength from thicker sinks; • Significantly increased weight, making installation more difficult; • Increased cost, but little improvement in daily user experience.

Many people worry: Will stainless steel kitchen sinks be unstable when installed under the countertop? In fact, stainless steel undermount sinks are very reliable in terms of load-bearing capacity and durability. Compared to ceramic or granite sinks, stainless steel is lighter, placing less strain on the countertop and making undermount installation safer.

Compared to single-bowl sinks, double-bowl sinks require two drain outlets to converge on the same drainpipe. If the connection is poorly designed, such as a T-joint with an excessively small angle, it can easily cause water flow to clash and pressure imbalance, leading to poor drainage.

Many people, upon hearing "316 is better than 304," mistakenly believe that a higher-grade material must be more suitable for the kitchen. This is a common misconception. 304 can easily resist common kitchen irritants such as water, salt, alkali, and grease. The "extra corrosion resistance" of 316 is almost meaningless in a typical home environment.

Stamped sinks are formed from a single sheet of stainless steel using a large stamping machine, with the body and corners naturally shaped without welding. The manufacturing process for handmade sinks is completely different. Therefore, welds are an inevitable part of the structure of handmade stainless steel kitchen sinks.
