Cleaning Tips For Your Modern Faucet

How often do you simply squirt some mass produced cleanser into your kitchen sink when you decide that it is time for some sink cleaning?  If you are not careful, you could be doing quite a lot of damage to your modern faucet and your kitchen sink's design.  Kitchen sink cleanser varies depending on the material from which your kitchen sink and kitchen sink faucet are constructed.  Kitchens inks are not always made out of stainless steel or ceramic.  Sometimes kitchen sinks are made from fireclay, china or even plastic.  This means that you need to take special care to use a kitchen cleanser that will not accidentally degrade your kitchen sink.If you are curious as to how to properly clean your modern faucet and kitchen sink, here are some hints to help you!

1. Read the directions on your kitchen sink cleanser carefully.  The container should tell you specifically which materials that particular cleanser can be used with.  It should also tell you which materials that cleanser can harm.  A good rule of thumb is to match the strength of your modern faucet's material to the strength of the cleanser.  The stronger the cleanser, the stronger your kitchen sink's material should be.  This means that especially harsh cleansers should not be used on plastics or china.
2. Clean your modern faucet on a regular basis.  You should swab the opening of the faucet, at minimum, on a daily basis.  This is because the mouth of your modern faucet is, literally, a breeding ground for all sorts of bacteria and spores.  It is dark, it is well hidden and it can be hard to properly clean.  The less often you clean your modern faucet, the more likely you are to transfer that build up of bacteria and spores to your body and your food as it will likely get washed out of the faucet by the flow of water once the build up has reached critical mass. 
3. Perform a deep cleaning on your modern faucet and your designer kitchen sink at least once a week.  The deep cleaning you perform will help build a shield between your sink and the germs and bacteria that may try to dig in to your sink's and faucet's surfaces throughout the week.  The deep cleanse will increase the lifetime of your sink's structural integrity and lengthen the lifetime of your modern faucet.
4. When in doubt about cleansers to use and when, you cannot go wrong with "green" or "natural" cleansers that you can make from household goods.  Vinegar, for example, is a fantastic cleanser for any design, kitchen sink, kitchen counter or otherwise.  What's more, vinegar is a pest deterrent:  it is well known for keeping ants at bay!

Cleaning your modern faucet and your designed kitchen sink on a regular basis is a good idea.  It will help your home and your body remain bacteria and germ free.  What's more, cleanliness is one of the tenets of modern design.  Modern design places heavy emphasis on clean lines and a lack of dirt, debris and clutter.  Regular cleaning will accomplish this!
