the toilet roll holder and towel racks not too bad, still can keep dry

when u wash the toilet, make a conscious effort not to splash everywhere

if its those corner shelves in the shower area and glass shelves above the sink.....bobian... tt why we got ours changed.

the original ones were quite gross when the guy removed it, tho they were only 2 months old!

Hi zhiz,

manage to resolve the marks issue?

I notice the same for my bathroom fitting from heritage.. even before i move in and use it

my id got her cleaner to clean it for me liao. but i think the tarnish also set in quite quickly cos i see slowly appearing again.

so i think from now i will be the cleaner instead :o

i called heritage but they say no such complains and it could be due to chemical wash. but the fixtures on the walls but i believe mine did come into contact with water. but then again seems like our stainless steel still kena stain :(

Its the same for my tower rack.. and the worse is, i didnt notice it until it was installed.

Im going to try the 3M S/S cleaner.. let u know if it does resolve it.

Im wondering does those cleaner for Automobile actually will works.. so it forms a shield and prevent watermarks and stains from forming

Off topic though.

For such S/S toilet & kitchen fittings, try Kris or Wel-Mi. They have lifetime warranty against rust. Have used their products & they are really good. No signs of rust after years of usage. :)

mine also.. rust appear just a month after using. Now I tell people stainless steel does not mean wun rust one.

I normally will take a cloth and some oil and rub on it until it comes off, something like how you will clean the rifle after an outfield. (those who go through NS before will know what I mean).

After that apply some oil and install it back. Mine is from Hoe Kee btw. Now I know you the chicken brand so ex liao.

Thinking of spraying some clear paint after removing the rust next time. dunno will help ornot.
