Product Care

Thank you for purchasing a fine decorative product from Prashant Enterprises. Our Cabinet Hardware & Door Hardware are of the finest quality and raw material that will provide years of worry-free use with proper care and maintenance.

Living Finishes

Our Living Finishes have NO PROTECTIVE COATING so they are very delicate and can easily be scratched or scuffed if not cared for properly. The unique characteristic of these finishes is that they wear and age over time. Essentially, the finish replicates what nature would do to the surface material naturally when exposed to the elements. These products will generally tend to darken slightly on the areas that are infrequently touched and lighten or highlight on the areas that are contacted on a consistent basis. Soaps, acidic fluids, and astringent cleaners can damage the finish. Avoid using abrasive pads, sponges, or cloths to clean the product. Do not allow water spots to dry on the fixture. Prashant Hardware initially applies a wax coating to the finish surface to help protect and prevent the finish from oxidizing prior to installation. Periodic cleaning can be done by using a micro-crystalline wax (Renaissance Wax is recommended). Apply the wax with a soft tissue or cloth and gently buff the wax with a soft clean cloth to remove surface spots and add a protective coating to the finish.

Our most of the products are manufactured from hand casted solid bronze. A remarkable feature of these finishes is that they age and wear over time in hencing the rustic and antique look of the pulls and knobs.

Our finishes are:

  • Natural Bronze
  • Dark Bronze
  • White Bronze
  • Matt Black Bronze

Standard Finishes

We also offered all chemical plated finishes on solid bronze and solid brass hardware.

POLISHED BRASS

Whilst all Prashant Enterprises polished brass products are coated with a durable long lasting lacquer, it will be damaged if abrasive cleaners or metal polishes are used to clean the products.

To maintain the lustre finish the product should be cleaned with slightly damp soft cloth. For items fitted onto exterior doors it is advisable to use a good quality wax polish after cleaning.

POLISHED CHROME

Chrome is a hard wearing finish and is virtually maintenance free. A light dusting with a non-abrasive cloth is the only maintenance required.

SATIN NICKEL AND ANTIQUED BRASS

For cleaning these finishes a light dusting with a soft dry cloth and the application of a good quality wax polish is recommended.

BLACK POWDER COATED

This finish is applied to wrought iron and cast alunimium products and requires very little maintenance. Regular cleaning with a soft cloth soaked in warm soapy water is recommended. In case of chipping clean the affected area with a damp cloth and leave to dry. Using a small brush cover the chipped area with black enamel paint.
