Routine Cleaning
metis^{® slimline solid surfaces do not require any specialist cleaning regimes, most dirt and light residue will easily wipe off with a damp cloth and soapy water. The surface should then be rinsed with clean water and wiped dry. Persistent marks can be removed by using a mild abrasive cleaner, but harsh scouring powders should be avoided. If in doubt, consult the ‘Care and Maintenance’ manual.}

metis^® slimline solid surfaces can easily be cut on-site ready for jointing using standard woodworking tools and equipment. As with other slimline surfaces, consideration may be needed with some hobs where the hob depth affects the use of cabinets and drawers beneath. Use of a built in oven beneath a hob may require adaptation to the cabinet in order to allow sufficient clearance between appliances.

Heat
metis^® slimline solid surfaces will withstand heat better than many alternative surface materials. However, all hot pots, pans and other heat generating devices should always be placed on a trivet or worktop protector rods to prevent extreme heat having prolonged and direct contact with the surface. Boiling water and cooking splashes do not harm the surface.

Minor scratching
Kitchen utensils and crockery (particularly the unglazed bases) can sometimes cause scratches that will be more evident on darker colours.

The surface can be damaged by scratching or cutting with knives, so the use of a cutting board is essential. Any minor scratches can be removed easily using the grey abrasive pad and other items from the metis® Care Kit.

Please refer to the ‘Care and Maintenance’ manual.
