What is the best way to clean this sink?

Clean the sink regularly with a mild dish soap and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or harsh chemicals that may damage the brushed finish. Rinse thoroughly and dry to prevent water spots.

Can I use a garbage disposal with this sink?

Yes, the VEI100CW is compatible with standard 3.5-inch drain garbage disposals. Ensure proper installation and secure mounting to avoid vibration.

What is the sink material and finish?

The sink is made of brushed stainless steel, which provides durability, resistance to corrosion, and a modern look. The brushed finish helps hide minor scratches.

Does the sink come with a template for cutting?

Yes, the package includes a cutting template to help accurately mark the countertop for installation. Use the template to ensure proper fit.

How do I remove scratches from the sink surface?

GEOTECH SINK PRODUCT CARE AND CLEANING

CARE AND CLEANING

Your Caple sink is manufactured to the highest standards. To keep it in optimum condition always wipe the sink down with warm soapy water and a cloth after use, thoroughly drying it afterwards. This will remove general everyday dirt from your sink.

In hard water areas limescale deposits can build up on the sink over time. The limescale can become strongly coloured by such foods as coffee and red wine etc., we recommend the use of lemon juice or vinegar to remove this. Simply apply, leave for a few minutes, wipe with a cloth or Magic Eraser and rinse away with water. Drying the sink after use will help prevent the build up of scale left on the sink surfaces as water evaporates.

RECOMMENDATIONS

We recommend the use of baskets and chopping boards to reduce the risk of accidental damage.

You must not pour strong chemicals down the sink such as bleach, ammonia, caustic soda, white sprit and sterilising solutions. If this should accidentally happen, quickly wipe the spill away and rinse with plenty of water.
Avoid placing hot pans and trays directly on the sink surface, we recommend using a trivit or pot stand to help prevent any damage.
We do not recommend the use of a plastic washing up bowl, as particles of grit which may be impregnated in the base of the bowl could scratch surface of the sink.
We do not recommend chopping food directly on the sink surface, as this can cause damage. Wooden chopping boards are available for this purpose.
- Avoid dropping sharp or heavy objects onto the sink as this may chip or crack the surface.
Leaving neat bleach in the sink can cause damage to all types of sinks. If neat bleach should come into contact with this product, please rinse thoroughly with warm soapy water.
