Gloss
COLOURpyne gloss combines a stunning and hygienic shiny surface with a medium gloss level at an affordable price.
If wipe marks are noticeable on COLOURpyne Gloss melamine surface finish it is generally due to greasy residue that has been left on the surface in the cleaning process.
To remove, methylated spirits or Windex glass cleaner can be used. It is recommended to do a final wipe over with soapy water and a dry clean cloth to remove any residue and restore the Gloss appearance.
Never use abrasive cleaners or powders, abrasive pads or steel wool.
To avoid marking or scratching the Gloss surface make sure the cleaning cloth does not contain any hard or foreign particles.
Due to the gloss reflective surface, some imperfections may be noticed in the surface due to slight substrate variation, contamination from packaging and transport, and marking of the surface from handling. This is inherent with the gloss surface. CHH gloss is also supplied1 with protective film on the top side of the panel. Although application of the protective film is intended to provide some protection to the gloss surface, it is possible that contamination can be trapped between the film and gloss surface. Whilst CHH take precautions to minimise the occurrence of this, it is not completely unavoidable. It is therefore both necessary and recommended that the gloss surface is inspected by the joiner to identify any defects on the intended work piece surface.
1 Alpine White gloss is not filmed.

Cleaning and Care Instructions
Keeping your COLOURpyne® Melamine surfaces clean is easy. Regular cleaning simply involves wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
Stubborn Grease and Grime
To clean off grimy film, use vinegar diluted with water or Selleys Sugar Soap.
Spills and Stains
The most important thing is to catch the stain early. Wiping it with hot soapy water is the first thing to try, however for tougher stains we recommend trying:
Wine hot soapy water
Rust diluted vinegar or lemon juice
Shoe polish diluted vinegar or lemon juice
Oven cleaner hot soapy water
Tea all-purpose surface cleaner
Foodstuffs all-purpose surface cleaner
Fabric dye cold water, wipe dry, then use methylated spirits
Felt pen methylated spirits or acetone
Paint/glue acetone
Heavy wax & grease xylene
Hair/leather dye methylated spirits
After using the solutions recommended above, always wipe with a damp cloth, then a dry cloth.
Never use abrasive cleaners or abrasive cleaning cloths, such as wire wool scourer pads, copper cleaner pads or sandpaper, on your COLOURpyne Melamine surfaces.
We also recommend caution in using bleach and alcohol-based cleaners. Dilute bleach (1 part bleach/ 3 parts water).
Save Work Practices
Work and storage areas should be well ventilated, and cleaned regularly. Wood dust should be removed by vacuum cleaning or by the wet sweeping method – not by compressed air systems. All sawing, sanding and machining equipment should be fitted with efficient dust extraction systems. Hand power tools should be fitted with dust bags. If skin irritations occur, long-sleeved shirts, trousers and comfortable work gloves should be worn. For respiratory protection, respirators/dust masks should be worn. These should comply with AS/NZS 1716. Safety glasses should be worn when machining substrates. Eye protection must conform to AS/NZS 1337. As a reconstituted panel product made from wood, resin and wax, users should be aware that as with all wood and timber products, prolonged exposure to wood dust and/or formaldehyde from MDF or particleboard may be harmful to your health.
