CARE AND USE. PROVIDING YOU FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE STEPS; YOUR INFINITY® WORKTOP WILL CONTINUE TO LOOK GREAT FOR YEARS TO COME.

Scratches

Like all worktop materials, Infinity® can develop fine abrasion marks in normal daily use which can be removed. We recommend that you minimize these abrasions by ensuring to always use a chopping board when cutting. If you have crockery that has rough or unfinished surfaces lift it across your worktop and avoid sliding.

Heat

Infinity® withstands high temperatures. However like all worktops; do not put hot pots, especially cast iron items, directly onto your new Infinity® worktop. Always use a heat protection pad. Always ensure that your pots are fully over the cook top when in use and not overhanging the bench top. Electric frying pans and other onbench electrical appliances often radiate more heat down than in the pan so always ensure you use these on a heat protective pad. A segment of Infinity® mounted on rubber buttons can be supplied in the matching bench colour to use as a heat protective pad for these applications.

Spills

It is a good policy to always wipe up spills as and when they occur. Most household cleaners will not damage your Infinity® worktop however excessive exposure to some cleaners or industrial chemicals may. Bleach for example may discolour the worktop if not completely removed by rinsing with water. Simply wipe up any spills and rinse thoroughly with soapy water.

Cleaning

Infinity® worktops are easily cleaned. Many liquid cleaners will be fine for wiping away the simple spills; however for stains or more excessive exposure to some cleaners or industrial chemicals may. Bleach for example may discolour the worktop if not completely removed by rinsing with water. Simply wipe up any spills and rinse thoroughly with soapy water.

Resurfacing

To further ensure peace of mind, your Infinity® worktop can be resurfaced by your approved Infinity installer by professionally sanding the surface, restoring your benchtop to look brand new - even after years of use.
