Care Instructions

Lifetime Corian Cutting Boards are made
out of non-porous, durable solid surfacing.
Extremely easy to maintain and clean,
Lifetime Cutting Boards require minimal
care to retain its beautiful, glossy appearance.
Soapy water, ammonia-based cleaners or commercially available solid surface cleaners will remove most dirt and residue from all types of finishes. Stubborn residue will require a little stronger cleaner.
Follow the recommendations below to properly clean your Lifetime Corian Cutting Board.

Conventional Cleaning Techniques

• Washing with soap and water is usually sufficient to remove surface dirt or stains.
• Ammonia based liquid cleaner (not window cleaner) may also be used. Always rinse surface thoroughly and wipe dry.
• Drying is an important step, preventing a build-up of soap film or cleaning residue, which can create the appearance of light scratches over time.
• Stubborn soap film or cleaning residue build-up in Corian® is easily removed with abrasive cleanser and a white Scotch-Brite® pad or a sponge.
• For darker colors, a polish may be used to enhance the shine. For areas where there may be food contact, always use a polish formulated for food contact areas, such as Countertop Magic®. Where food contact is not a possibility, a simple furniture polish may be used. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for using the polish and for safety concerns.

Cleaning Agents

Lifetime Corian Cutting Boards are unaffected by common household and commercial cleaners such as:

• Powdered abrasive cleansers (like Comet®)
• Ammonia
• Strong detergents
• Oxalic acid solutions
• Dilute hydrochloric acid solutions
• Dilute trisodium phosphate solutions

Acid drain cleaners may cause surface damage and should not be used on Lifetime Cutting Board

Cigarette Burns, Stubborn Stains

Unlike other surface materials stains or marks caused by cigarettes, alcohol, food, lipstick, hair dye, shoe polish, iodine, marking pens, etc. can be removed by using an abrasive cleanser and a Scotch-Brite® pad. If the surface has a gloss finish, use a white Scotch-Brite® pad.
This type of maintenance will not harm the Lifetime Cutting Board surface, and will restore it to “like new” condition.
