• General Cleaning
• Bristan products are made from premium materials, with hand polishing and electroplated finishes.
• Your taps or shower should be regularly cleaned with warm water, a mild pH-neutral liquid soap, and polished with a soft cloth. Any residues from soap, toothpaste, shampoos, and shower gels can cause blemishes if not rinsed off straight after use.
• Household bleaches and cleaners contain harsh chemicals and may damage the surface finish. Avoid using abrasive cloths, scouring pads, scrub sponges, steel wool, or anything similar.
