How to Maintain Chrome Bathroom Fittings and Keep Them Sparkling

### Protecting Your Expensive Bathroom Fixtures

Patna's ground water contains high concentrations of dissolved minerals that leave white crusty scale marks on polished chrome and matte black taps.

- **Avoid Harpic, Bleach, and Hydrochloric Acid:** Strong toilet cleaning acids permanently strip chrome plating, leaving dark burned stains that cannot be polished away. - **Use Dilute White Vinegar and Mild Soap:** Wipe taps daily with a microfiber cloth dipped in mild soapy water or a 1:1 solution of white vinegar and water. - **Dry Fittings After Showers:** Mineral deposits only form when standing water droplets evaporate on chrome surfaces. Wiping taps dry extends their brand-new shine for years.
