This heavy-duty 10 gauge aluminum kitchenware is designed for durability and performance. To maintain its quality, it is recommended that these aluminum products are hand washed, as they are not suitable for the dishwasher. For proper care, users should allow the product to cool before washing. The recommended cleaning method involves using warm water, mild soap, and a soft, non-abrasive sponge. After washing, it's essential to dry the item immediately and thoroughly with a cloth or paper towel to prevent limescale buildup. In cases of cooked-on food residue, a solution of boiling water with vinegar can be applied for 4 to 5 minutes to loosen the residue, followed by the standard washing and drying process.
