STONE SINKS
The sinks are made of marble with a satin finish and are machined
by industrial processes and finished by hand. Once finished, we
apply a specific product to enhance the characteristics of the
material and protect it from external agents.

MAINTENANCE
In order to keep your new bathroom ensemble in optimal
condition for a long time, it is important that you read and
understand the general cleaning and maintenance tips for the
different elements that can be part of a bathroom ensemble,
which are outlined below.
NATURAL STONE
Maintenance of the stone is simple, but it is a necessary step for
its care. As a general rule, the best product for cleaning natural
stone is water. To avoid the build-up of limescale, minerals and
other residues or chemicals that can affect the surface of the
stone, rinse the stone with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.
Neutral PH detergents can also be used, although specialized
cleaners provide the best balance between cleaning and stone
care.
Because of use, the surface of a sink is one of the areas which
suffers higher stress. At home, for example, despite frequent
cleaning, halos and blemishes can appear due to constant contact
with other substances, and also limescale, which is caused by
continuous contact with water.
For the maintenance of natural stone L'Antic Colonial
recommends: CLEANER PRO de FILA..
It is a concentrated neutral detergent. It cleans without attacking
the material, ideal for ordinary maintenance.
Aggressive chemicals such as bleach, acid-based degreasers,
ammonia, lime descalers, etc. should be avoided. It is important
that in the case of spillage of any of the above products, they
should be cleaned as soon as possible using a cloth or absorbent
paper.
L'Antic Colonial protects all its stones with BIOPROT which is a
waterproofing hydro and repellent oil that improves the properties
of natural stone in terms of resistance to stains. In addition, the
Bioprot process radically reduces the appearance of bacteria on
the natural stone surface.
A very common question is how often a natural stone product
must be resealed, this will depend on the type of stone, the
surface finish and the use the product receives. Heavily used
surfaces should be sealed annually for optimum protection if the
above maintenance recommendations have been followed.
If you are not sure if you need to reseal your product, place a
few drops of water on the surface and leave them 15 minutes,
if the water darkens the stone is that it has absorbed, then it is
time to re-protect.
For a new protection, L'Antic Colonial recommends:
1.
PROTECTING AND REVITALIZING THE COLOR OF THE
STONE: STONE PLUS de FILA. It's an anti-stain with a
color revitalizing effect. It increases the resistance to
stains of the material, enhancing the color.
2.
PROTECTING WHILE RESPECTING THE NATURAL COLOR
OF THE STONE: FOB EXTREM de FILA It increases the
anti-stain performance of the material without altering
its appearance.

In the case of having to act against some stain, it is important to
identify the origin in order to choose the ideal cleanser, L'Antic
Colonial recommends the following:
•
PS87 PRO de FILA: Degreaser, stain remover and paint
stripper. Cleans and degreases. Ideal for stone cleaning.
Removes organic stains. Easy to use.
•
SR95 de FILA: Color stain remover. It can even be used
on very delicate materials such as bright polished marble
while fully respecting the brightness of the material.
Effective against colored organic stains (wine, coffee,
beverages...)
•
FILAMARBLE RESTORER de FILA: it is a marble saving kit.
The kit contains 3 metal pads with different granulometry,
a white polishing sponge, a shine recoverer and a
nourishing cream. It is ideal for the recovery of small
surfaces in marble, travertine and limestone that have
been attacked by acidic substances or atmospheric
agents. It also eliminates nuances caused by wear and
tear.
In the case of cleaning with any of these products, you must dry
the piece thoroughly and re-protect the entire surface.
WOOD
Frequent cleaning is desirable to prevent dirt build-up and
having to resort to more aggressive cleaning. Furniture should
never be exposed to excessive contact with water or with
extremely high moisture, therefore make sure that the bathroom
has proper ventilation. If water spills on the surface, simply use a
dry cloth as soon as possible to prevent moisture penetration.
For ordinary cleaning, simply use a slightly damp cloth and then
dry with a soft, clean, and dry cloth.
In case you need to remove a more stubborn stain, you can mix
neutral soap in a container with warm water, wipe with a cloth
slightly dampened in this mixture and then dry with a soft, clean,
and dry cloth. Ideally, use a biodegradable cleaner that leaves no
residue and does not require rinsing after application.
We recommend Rmc Surface Care 750 mL for the cleaning
of varnished wood stains. Before applying, carefully read the
instructions for use of each respective cleaner.
Avoid direct exposure to sunlight for long periods of time. During
peak sunlight hours, use curtains or blinds to minimize direct
sunlight.
The use of certain tools and products that should never be used
for cleaning, such as: sharp objects, scouring pads with rough
surfaces, solvents, bleaches, nail polish removers, vinegars, citric
acids, abrasive products, polishes, etc., is not recommended.
Avoid hitting the elements of your bath with hard objects.
In case of doubt about the reaction of a cleaning product,
carry out a test in the least visible place to check possible color
alterations or other effects.
Cleaning products that give off corrosive vapors can alter the
finish of hardware and accessories inside a cabinet. Make sure
that caps are always properly closed. Damp cloths and sponges
do not dry easily inside furniture. Their dampness can produce,
over time, signs of rust in the surrounding materials.
Wood is a natural hygroscopic product, so it reacts to
temperature variations and, above all, to room moisture, with
expansion and contraction. The room moisture should be
between 40%-60% and the temperature between 20° and
23°C.
GLASS AND MIRRORS
Use a feather duster to remove the dust on the surface and
then use a cloth moistened with a little water. It is important to
España_www.anticcolonial.com
dry the mirror well, especially its edges, to avoid small drops of
water that could damage the mirror.
Avoid using acid or alkaline products that may attack the surface
of the mirror, its edges and even the protective platex. The
use of products containing ammonia, chlorine or bleach is not
recommended either.
MEASURES TO PREVENT WATER DAMAGE:
Do not use steamers for cleaning your cabinets, as the water
vapor pressure penetrates the materials and can cause serious
damage. Avoid frequent and prolonged water spills, keep
surfaces dry.
Avoid water leaks through the joints of the countertops to the
wall, joints, cutouts, etc. Be sure to seal the joints, always dry the
countertop after use, and periodically check the good condition
of the sealing of the joints.
Changes in room moisture produce contractions and expansions
in the wood elements, prevent or reduce these changes by using
dehumidifiers, ventilation and/or heating.
The ideal conditions consist of keeping a temperature between
20-23°C and a room moisture content between 40%-60%.
As an additional preservation measure, curtains should be placed
or the glass should be protected with UV protection films to
avoid direct contact with sunlight against the material, which
may cause discoloration or deformation
