How To Maintain A Remodeled Vanity

The remodeling has finally taken place and now, one is left with a completely new and spotless bathroom. For many people, it actually becomes hard to use their newly remodeled bathroom because they are afraid of ruining the perfection.The downside to this extreme precaution is that it usually lasts for a few days, or until the first little bit of damage is done to the vanity and that after that, a person generally seems to give up on trying to maintain the new vanity and generally use it however they want.There are many different types of vanities. Some of them have more counter space on them whereas others have less. For a larger vanity that has more counter space, there will obviously be more maintenance involved. Smaller vanities may not provide as much storage and stocking space, but they are definitely easier to maintain.Whether the vanity is larger or smaller, it doesn't necessarily have to be very difficult to maintain it. Here are a few tips that one can follow to ensure that one’s vanity remains in top shape for years to come:

Keep it Dry

Keeping a vanity dry cannot be emphasized enough. Water that sits on the vanity may not cause immediate damage, but over the years, the negative effects will definitely show. Keep an extra towel or cloth in the bathroom just for wiping down the vanity when one is done using the sing. Make sure to wipe the cabinets as well to prevent water from trickling down the cabinet doors and leaving marks behind.

Avoid Scrubbing

Everyone loves a clean vanity, but scrubbing with abrasive and harsh sponges is definitely not the way to go. Using hard scrubbing tools and applying a lot of pressure on the vanity can leave permanent streaks that will look worse than the stain and almost be impossible to fix. When cleaning the vanity, use gentle cleaning products, and if the stain is not coming off, then use very hot water. Hot water will almost always get rid of the stain, and the best part is that it will not damage the vanity.

Avoid Harsh Chemicals

Using very harsh chemicals like bleach and other strong bathroom cleaning products is a sure way to destroy one's vanity in a few months. Make sure that any cleaning product that is being used is not very strong or abrasive. Simple cleaning detergents and liquid soap with hot water are almost always enough to get rid of any stainOnce a bathroom vanity has been installed, it is only natural to want to keep it looking as new as possible, for as long as possible. However, vanities are used multiple times a day and that is why they can get ruined not too long after they are installed. Maintaining the vanity from day one is a person's best bet to ensure that the vanity stays looking new. In order to prevent damage to the vanity, one should keep it as dry as possible, avoid harsh scrubbing and also avoid harsh chemicals.
