Aluminium
This metal, known for its stability, can resist frost, high temperatures and prolonged exposure to the sun.
Easy to clean as follows: dust the surface with a soft cloth, then use cold water and a
non-aggressive or abrasive detergent (neutral soap is fine). Do not bleach.
Avoid letting the dirt stains on the surface age, other wise complete removal of the stains
is not guaranteed: cleaning immediately means obtaining better results with less effort!
To avoid streaks, always remove the detergent, rinse and dry thoroughly. If you are using
detergents or solvents that you are unsure of, it is advisable to make a preliminary test in
an out of sight corner of the product.
Ceramic
Ceramic tops do not require any particular maintenance, thanks to the high resistance and stability of the material.
Cleaning can be carried out very simply using soft and clean cloths soaked in
water, possibly adding detergents of common household use with neutral pH or
natural vinegar.
Dry the surface after cleaning is complete. Do not use metal or abrasive brushes.
The use of products containing waxes, brighteners, strong acids (eg hydrofluoric,
sulfuric, etc.) is not recommended because they could permanently damage the
surface.
