Marblux Bath Vanity Top Care & Maintenance

MAINTENANCE OF YOUR MARBLUX VANITY TOP

CONGRATULATIONS! You have just purchased a premium quality MARBLUX cultured marble vanity top. In order to keep your cultured marble top in excellent condition, please observe the following instructions:

DAILY CARE: To protect the finish of your cultured marble or onyx products, clean only with non-abrasive soaps or liquid detergents. Use cleaners that are appropriate for use on mirrors or windows to keep the surface clean and glossy. Using abrasive cleaners will dull the finish of your vanity top, and continued use will cause permanent damage to the finish. We highly recommond Gel Gloss for cleaning and polishing your cultured marble products.

STAINING: Do not use strong chemicals such as bleach or ammonia to clean cultured marble or onyx. Your top?s finish is highly resistant to staining by most household agents, but repeated exposure to strong chemicals can cause discoloration.

RESTORING THE SHEEN: Occasionally applying a coat of high-quality automotive wax or Gel Gloss will keep the surface shining brightly.

HOT WATER: Avoid excessively high water temperatures. Exposure to water temperatures above 150? F can damage the surface of the product and void the warranty.

SCRATCHES AND DENTS: The surfaces of cultured marble and onyx, although hard, can be scratches with hard or sharp objects. Most small surface scratches can be easily removed by applying a fine automotive rubbing compound and buffing to a high luster. Deeper scratches may require sanding lightly with 600 grit wet sandpaper, followed by rubbing compound and automotive wax to restore the finish.

LIME-SCALE DEPOSITS: Lime-scale is a major staining agent in kitchen and bathroom sinks and results from dried calcium deposts left by hard water. The porous lime-scale layer is especially susceptible to coffee and tea stains. Care should be used to prevent such deposts from forming, by cleaning with a calcium-removal cream or a vinegar-based solution.

Limited Eight Year Warranty for the Original Customer

Marblux products are manufactured under stringent quality control procedures and are carefully inspected prior to shipment. Marblux warrants the product to the original customer and to no other person for a period of eight (8) years from the date of pruchase to be free of defects in materials and workmanship. If the product is found to have a defect within the terms of this warranty, Marblux will repair, or at their discretion, replace the product. Marblux will not be responsible for any labor and/or service charges incidental to removing and replacing the product. All costs and arrangements for shipment of the defective product to Marblux are the responsibility of the customer.

The customer is responsible to thoroughly inspect the product at the time of delivery. This warranty does not cover, and Marblux will not be responsible for, damage incurred after the customer signs the delivery ticket. Signing the delivery ticket means that the top was received in acceptable condition. Neither does it cover abuse, improper installation, or use and care of the product contrary to the above printed instructions. Marblux will not warrant cracks, chips or breakage not due to defects in the materials or workmanship. Cultured marble products are produced from natural and man-made materials and are, by their nature, subject to minor warpage and surface imperfections, small air bubbles and slight surface irregularities, and may contain color variations, non-uniform patterns or veining and small particles of foreign matter. These are not considered defects by conditions commonly found in products of nature such as stone and quarried marble, and therefore, are not covered by this warranty. For this warranty to be effective, the original customer must provide proof of purchase.
