Nayla_106814 Nov 2010 20:28Hello,
In general, these are high-gloss fronts. Normal fingerprints are barely visible, if at all. However, obvious greasy fingerprints definitely show. It also depends on the lighting conditions in your kitchen. The more natural light you get, the more you’ll need to clean. Or, the brighter the kitchen, the lighter you should choose the fronts. The white front with a real oak countertop looks very elegant, especially with some nice handles. Perfect. But of course, that’s a matter of personal taste.
One important thing: NEVER use any harsh chemicals on the fronts. There are also great care products and polishing cloths available. KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF CHEMICALS! Simply wipe with a damp, soft kitchen towel. At most, you can put some diluted glass cleaner or dish soap on the cloth and gently rub. Do not use ordinary dishcloths or kitchen sponges, and avoid paper towels, as they often contain fine particles that can cause scratches. This might sound complicated at first, but it’s really quite simple. Over time, this is the only way you’ll truly enjoy your high-gloss fronts.
Best regards and enjoy your kitchen

Hello Nayla,
thank you for your reply, that already sounds very promising.
What exactly is meant by a "soft cloth"? A normal cotton kitchen towel? Yesterday, I found microfiber cloths at Ikea (set of 4, for 3 different uses) – could I use those as well?
Best regards,
Patricia

Nayla_106814 Nov 2010 20:58Hi,
just a cotton dish towel. They are nice and soft. It’s best to keep one towel specifically for cleaning the fronts. Microfiber cloths, on the other hand, shouldn’t be used. Strangely, they can scratch as well. I’ve heard from customers that they can leave "blind spots" on the fronts.

Polishing cloths from automotive supply stores. And speaking of "automotive supplies": For surfaces that are already slightly worn, car polish can be helpful (but I wouldn’t use it on brand-new surfaces).
