Check the surface maker
Stone, wood, laminate, stainless steel, glass and coated finishes can all have different care restrictions.
Start gentle
Soft cloths, appropriate brushes and surface-approved cleaners are usually preferable to aggressive abrasion.
Test unfamiliar methods
Use manufacturer-recommended test areas where appropriate.
Separate tools by messy task
Dedicated brushes or cloths can reduce transfer between bathrooms, kitchens, entryways and other zones.
