How to clean frequently used surfaces in the kitchen, bathroom or other rooms? It all depends on the type of contamination and on the features of the surfaces themselves. In this material we will deal with both questions.

What are frequently used surfaces?

Used surfaces as a finishing material are actively used for the bathroom and kitchen, and this is quite justified.

Frequently used surfaces have a long list of positive properties: they are hydrophobic, wear-resistant and light-resistant, strong enough and durable. And they also look quite aesthetically pleasing and are inexpensive. And, since they are present in the homes of many people, the question of how to wash them is more than relevant.

Before you start washing frequently used surfaces, you need to decide on their type (glossy or matte).

Glossy frequently used surfaces are covered with a laminating layer, unlike matte ones. Both options have their pros and cons. Laminating layer of lacquer protects the surface from dirt, it becomes resistant to abrasives, so glossy surfaces are easier to clean.

But for cleaning matte surfaces you need to use non-aggressive chemistry and carefully select the inventory, so as not to scratch the surface. It is best to use a vacuum cleaner and dry microfiber.

Types of contaminants and features of fighting them

Most often the following types of contamination are formed on plastic panels:

  • grease deposits;
  • rust
  • lime scale;
  • water stains;
  • soap marks;
  • mold, fungus;
  • dust.

Before cleaning, it is necessary to free the working space as much as possible, remove all objects that may interfere with the process. It is recommended to use personal protective equipment – a mask and gloves.

To wash PVC panels, use warm water, but not hot (optimally – 40-45 degrees). If you use a detergent for the first time, check first not a small area, whether it will not damage the surface.

General rules for cleaning frequently used surfaces:

Use cleaners with fine abrasive particles, or better yet, without them at all. They can scratch the top layer, and moisture will damage the surface, which can cause mold to develop;
use soft cloths and sponges, and never iron brushes or rubbers;
wash plastic panels often enough, at least once every four weeks. In this way you will not allow the appearance of dried stains;
after washing, rinse the panels with water and then wipe them dry with a cloth to avoid streaks.
