Copper Baths
EVERYDAY CLEANING
After each use, rinse away any residue with clean water and dry the surface with a soft cloth to help prevent water spots. For a more thorough clean, use mild dish soap and a non-abrasive sponge or cloth as needed.
NATURAL AGING
Over time, your copper bath will naturally develop a patina that forms through oxidation. Often referred to as a "living finish," this process results in a mix of tones that enhances the character of the metal and protects it from corrosion.
REPAIRING DAMAGE
Using a soft microfiber cloth, apply a small amount of high-quality copper polish. Rub in a circular motion until scratch diminishes and the surface regains its shine.
Kel Acrylic Baths
EVERYDAY CLEANING
Clean with warm soapy water or any bathroom cleaner that is safe on acrylic finishes.

NATURAL MOULD REMOVAL AND PREVENTION
Several natural household items can effectively kill mould, including white vinegar and tea tree oil. These options are safer for household use than bleach and can help prevent mould regrowth.
NATURAL MOULD KILLERS AND HOW TO USE THEM
1. WHITE VINEGAR
Pour undiluted white or cleaning vinegar into a spray bottle, spray the affected area, let it sit for at least an hour, then scrub and wipe clean. Do not rinse immediately.
2. TEA TREE OIL
A powerful, natural fungicide that studies have shown to be highly effective at inhibiting mould growth. Mix 1 teaspoon of tea tree oil with 1 cup of water in a spray bottle. Spray on the mouldy area and leave it to air dry; no rinsing is needed to prevent recurrence. (Caution: Tea tree oil can be toxic if swallowed, so use care around pets and children).
3. BAKING SODA
A mild, non-toxic cleaner that kills mould and absorbs moisture and odors. Mix a quarter of a teaspoon of baking soda with water in a spray bottle, spray, scrub with a brush, rinse, and spray again, allowing the final application to air dry as a preventative measure. It can also be made into a paste with water for tough spots.
4. CLOVE OIL
A very effective mould destroyer, recommended by experts for killing mould spores. Mix 1/8 teaspoon of clove oil with 500ml of water in a spray bottle, spray lightly, and leave for 24 hours before wiping clean.
5. LEMON JUICE
The high acid concentration in lemons helps break down mould and leaves a fresh scent. Apply lemon juice directly to the mould, let it sit for a few minutes, then scrub and wipe clean.
IMPORTANT TIPS AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Always wear protective gloves, a face mask, and goggles when cleaning mould to avoid inhaling spores or skin irritation.
These solutions treat surface mould, but the underlying moisture source (e.g., a leak, poor ventilation) must be addressed to prevent regrowth.
Cleaning and Buffing Guide
EVERYDAY CLEANING
Use a non-abrasive cream cleanswer such as Ajax of Jiff to remove most surface marks. Apply with a damp sponge or soft cloth.
BUFFING FOR STUBBORN MARKS OR LIGHT SCRATCHES
For deeper marks or fine scratches, use a soft circular buffing pad. We recommend a three-stage process using 1000, 2000, and 4000 grit pads Always dampen the pad before use and ensure the surface stays moist throughout.
1. START WITH 1000 GRIT
Use circular motions and apply even pressure to the affected area only. Wipe clean with a damp cloth regularly to check your progress.
2. FOLLOW WITH 2000 GRIT
Once the marks or rough patches have softened, switch to 2000 grit to refine the area and blend it into the surrounding surface.
3. FINISH WITH 4000 GRIT
Use the final buff to bring back a smooth, polished look.
4. OPTIONAL - APPLY CAR WAX
For added sheen and protection, apply a quality car wax such as Purewax following the final buff.
IMPORTANT
This is a surface-level buff only. Do not work deeper than 3mm into the material.
