Matt kitchens might be beautiful when they’re clean, but the entire aesthetic can fall apart with a simple smudge.
Be Gentle
Maintaining a matt surface requires a light hand and soft chemicals. Use microfibre cloths and warm, soapy water. Otherwise, your surfaces will become scratched. You’ll need to buff them dry to prevent watermarks and streaking. Always use a dry wipe after washing.
Replace Your Doors
If your doors have become scratched from harsh treatment, replacement wardrobe doors can take care of immovable stains and make your kitchen look significantly cleaner.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals To Move Grease
If you’ve developed greasy stains, a vinegar solution is gentle enough for matt surfaces and tough on grease. First, wipe the surface with soft paper towels. Then spray a 50% vinegar solution onto the surface. Once you’ve performed a wet buff, go over the surface again with a dry microfibre cloth.
Avoid Air Drying
If your matt replacement wardrobe doors are wet, don’t allow them to air dry. This will leave streaks and water marks, so towel-dry all wet surfaces.
Use Protective Wax
Matte-finish furniture polish forms a barrier to repel oils and fingerprints. Carnauba wax will achieve the same result, so if you’re tired of wiping your cabinetry clean, prevention is better than cure.
Harsh cleaning habits cause tiny scratches on matt surfaces, rendering them porous. This only encourages further stains that become harder and harder to remove. Resist the temptation to treat them harshly. There will be a price to pay!
