1. Daily Dusting: Wipe the cabinet body with a soft cloth dampened with a neutral detergent. Avoid scrubbing vigorously with a dry cloth or rinsing the cabinet directly with water, as standing water can corrode the hardware and panels.
2. Stain Removal: For stubborn surface stains, never scrub aggressively with strong chemical solvents like alcohol or gasoline. Instead, gently remove the stain using warm tea; once the moisture evaporates, apply a layer of polishing wax to the area and buff lightly a few times to create a protective coating.
3. Specialized Cleaning for Different Countertops:
- Quartz Countertops: Wipe up spills immediately and pay special attention to cleaning dirt trapped in seams. After cleaning, apply a thin layer of furniture wax to enhance shine and create a barrier against stains.
- Ceramic Basins: Promptly remove dust and grit to prevent scratching the glaze. If scratches appear, apply a small amount of toothpaste, buff repeatedly with a soft, dry cloth, and then apply wax to restore the smooth finish.
- Stainless Steel Cabinets: Wipe away ordinary dust with soap and warm water. Remove adhesive residue with alcohol. If the surface comes into contact with bleach or acidic substances, rinse immediately with clean water and then clean with a neutral baking soda solution.
