Daliy cleaning just using plenty of warm water and a melamine sponge is highly effective. Wipe dry with a clean cloth. If you look at FENIX® through a microscope, you will see the structure that causes light to reflect at a variety of angles. This is what gives the matt appearance of the surface. Taking care of FENIX® means taking care of its structure. To avoid damaging the surface, don’t scrub your FENIX® laminate with a scouring sponge, abrasive cream, a hard brush or the like. In the long term, doing this might lead to a glossy spot. Instead, you can use a melamine sponge - also known as a magic sponge. As FENIX® is a strong material, you can also use any household cleaner, like all-purpose cleaners, disinfectants, degreasers or limescale removers. If needed, even acetone can be safely used (always follow the health and safety instructions on the bottle). After cleaning with detergents, always rinse with plenty of warm water and wipe dry with a clean cloth. The water removes dirt, residues from cleaning liquids and particles of a melamine sponge, that could otherwise stay behind in the surface. The clean cloth absorbs water and therefore avoids limescale residues that may cause a change in appearance.
