For lovers of modern furnishing style, sanitary ware in opaque ceramic are a “must have”. A finish that can be adapted to darker shades or natural gres tiles. And for cleaning, how to do it?

The cleaning of opaque sanitary ware

Sanitary ware in opaque ceramic are made of a material very resistant to abrasion, waterproof and very long lasting, but they are also microporous. In fact, it requires a different treatment compared to the more common glazed ceramic, but it remains a very simple surface to clean and does not require special care or attention. If you do not know which one to choose between opaque or glossy ceramic sanitary ware, don’t worry.

The only precaution concerns the use of aggressive detergents – the same to avoid even in the cleaning of glazed ceramic, because they tend to make the surfaces yellow or opaque – which cause stains on the sanitary ceramics. To preserve the original appearance of your opaque ceramic fixtures for a long time, it will be better to favor detergents without surfactants, citric acid or other decalcarising substances.

How to clean and keep them over time

For the ordinary cleaning of opaque sanitary ware it is better to use a mild detergent specific for this kind of material or a simple solution of pure alcohol or ammonia diluted in water. Follow our advice for proper cleaning and maintenance of the sanitary ware.
