Refining Raw Materials
The basins' essential ingredient is limestone. We are resolute that only the purest limestone is used. We use fine industrial mesh and powerful magnets to achieve this. The result is only the highest grade of limestone goes into the mix.
The Material
The material is made by mixing the refined limestone above with high grade resins. Air bubbles are removed in a high vacuum environment chamber.
Injecting Catalyst and Curing
Before the material is poured into a closed mould a catalyst is added. The catalyst is the means by which the material is hardened in a temperature-controlled environment. The top mould is removed. The bottom mould remains attached (to prevent any buckling) while the basin goes through a post curing heat tunnel for 180 minutes. This post curing process hardens the resin / limestone compound. Now using specialised hole saws the waste is drilled.
Quality Assurance Procedures
The basin is thoroughly examined for defects and uniformity of thickness throughout.
Polishing
Now the basin is cleaned and highly polished.
If any scratches occur during installation, these can be removed by rubbing with a 1500+ grit waterproof abrasive paper and water.
Repolish the surface afterwards using a neutral automotive colour restorer or household metal polish. Deeper scratches may require a more abrasive paper to be used initially. If this is case, work your way up to 1500 grit gradually and re polish. For best results limit sanding to the smallest possible area around the scratch.
It may be possible to polish very fine scratches away without using abrasive papers by scrubbing gently with a soft brush or plastic pad (Do not use metal scouring pad) and a mildly abrasive cream cleanser. Afterwards scrub the whole area with plenty of clean water and re polish as before.
Everyday Cleaning of Your Basin
We recommend that you use a non abrasive bathroom or kitchen household cleaner for your everyday cleaning as constantly using abrasives may cause the disappearance of the satin look over a long period of time.
Should you need to clean your basin with an abrasive cleaner, as may be required occasionally, polishing with a car polish or gumption will restore the luster in your basin.
