These white spots are deposits of calcium and they often show up in a ring around the bottom of the sink. In addition to your regular cleaning routine, use a cleaner that removes calcium deposits to restore your Silgranit sink's shine.InstructionsSpray the white discoloration with a sink cleaner that is specially formulated to remove calcium deposits.Scrub gently at the discolored area with a damp, non-abrasive sponge.Rinse the Anthracite Silgranit sink thoroughly with hot water.Restore the shine of the Anthracite sink with mineral oil. Add about a spoonful of mineral oil to a clean cloth and wipe the entire sink.Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on your Silgranit sink. Avoid using undiluted bleach.Read more: How to Clean Off a White Spot on a Blanco Anthracite Silgranit Sink | eHow.com http://www.ehow.com/how_12114658_clean-off-white-spot-blanco-anthracite-silgranit-sink.html#ixzz1yiIwvP3h Edited June 24, 2012 by Tigaroo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikeyong500 4 Report post Posted June 26, 2012 Thanks Mike ...The Pergo and quick step are really water proof or resistance?? keeping my finger cross.... everyday discover something new.Hi!Water resistant will be the correct word to use la. Most laminated flooring consists of 4 layers. The top most layer is called the wear layer. This layer yes, is water proof and wear resistant. The reason why I say water resistant is a better word to use is because the joint area between the laminated flooring is not water proof. If there is water spillage on the joint area, the water will seep through into the laminate if the spillage is not wiped off immediately:) There is also moisture in the air as well, that is why the vapor barrier is a must to make the laminated flooring last longer. So installation must be done the proper way. Hahaz Cheers ,Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikeyong500 4 Report post Posted June 26, 2012 Bro mind Pm the quote for your Platform??Are u using AC5??AC5?! Erm it is usually for commercial use... Places with heavy traffic like public buildings and department stores. Not that you can't use it for your home but it might be too rough for our bare feet due to the course surface of the products under this rating.Cheers ,Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
