Care and Cleaning
For best results, keep the following in mind when caring for your KOHLER product:
• Always test your cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area before applying to the entire surface.
• Wipe surfaces clean and rinse completely with water immediately after applying cleaner. Rinse and
dry any overspray that lands on nearby surfaces.
• Do not allow cleaners to soak on surfaces.
• Use a soft, dampened sponge or cloth. Never use an abrasive material such as a brush or scouring
pad to clean surfaces.
• The ideal cleaning technique is to rinse thoroughly and blot dry any water from the surface after
each use.
• Use a soft nylon brush on Safeguard
(dissolves 100% in water).
