The Beating Heart of the Home: Deep Care for Washing Machines and Dishwashers
They are the silent heroes of our household chores, but hidden inside them are invisible enemies: limestone, detergent residues, grease and bacteria. Ignoring them means running into bad smells, disappointing performance, and sudden failures.
Enemy Number One: How to Annihilate Limestone and Grease
Every wash cycle, hard water leaves limescale deposits on the vital components of your appliances, such as the resistance and plumbing. This insulating layer forces the machine to consume more energy to reach the desired temperature, wearing out the components and compromising the results. THE3-in-1 Descaling and Degreaser It is the secret weapon for preventive internal maintenance.
Its professional formula does not just dissolve existing limescale, but it also acts on grease and food residues (in the dishwasher) or detergent and fabric softener (in the washing machine), which are the main cause of bad odors. Regular treatment is the insurance policy for the longevity of your appliance.
- _LIST_GROUP_ITEM_CLASS_="List-Group-Item">Energy Efficiency: A clean heater heats water faster, reducing bill consumption.
- Failure Prevention: It protects vital components from corrosion and breakage, saving you from costly technician calls.
- Absolute Hygiene: It eliminates bacteria that proliferate in the residues, ensuring brilliant dishes and a truly clean and fragrant laundry.
- Degreasing action: It dissolves fatty deposits that can clog filters and drains.
360° Cleaning: The Ultimate Kit for a Washing Machine Like New
While the descaling works inside, what happens in the visible and hidden parts of your washing machine? The porthole seal, detergent drawer and external surfaces accumulate mold, residue and dirt. This is why the Washing Machine Cleaning Kit, a complete set for total sanitation.
This kit is not a single product, but a coordinated cleaning system that addresses each specific problem area of your washing machine, ensuring not only an impeccable appearance but also a healthy washing environment for your clothes.
What does the kit contain?
A targeted approach for every need: powder for cleaning the drum and internal parts, a sanitizing spray for seals and external surfaces, and a specific brush to reach the most difficult corners of the detergent drawer.
How do you best use it?

- Seal Care (Weekly): Spray the sanitizing detergent on a cloth and thoroughly clean the rubber gasket, lifting creases where stagnant water and mold lurk.
- Detergent Drawer (Every two weeks): Take out the drawer, spray the product and use the included brush to remove all detergent and fabric softener residues, which often cause bad odors.

Together, these two products create an impenetrable barrier against limescale, dirt and odors, ensuring top performance and exceptional durability of your appliance.
The Elegance That Shines: Keeping Stainless Steel Surfaces Shining
Stainless steel is the undisputed star of modern kitchens. It is beautiful, durable and hygienic, but it has a weak point: it is a magnet for fingerprints, marks and splashes. Inadequate cleaning can make it dull or, worse, scratch it irretrievably.
For daily cleaning and to maintain that mirror finish you love, the Stainless Steel Surface Cleaning Kit is your indispensable ally. Forget generic products that leave streaks. This kit has been formulated specifically for steel.
The professional spray cleaner degreases thoroughly without being aggressive, removing fingerprints and water stains with a single pass. The high-quality microfiber cloth, included in the kit, is designed to clean and polish without scratching or leaving lint. The combined use creates a protective barrier that makes surfaces less susceptible to future dirt.
SOS Scratches and Opacity: The Magic of Regenerating Paste
With time and use, even the most cured steel can show micro-scratches, stubborn stains or opacified areas. Before you despair, try the Clin-Clin Stainless Steel Regenerating Paste. This product is a real intensive beauty treatment.
Its special formula contains micro-particles that act to smooth the surface, reducing surface scratches and removing oxidation and the most difficult stains (such as those left by limestone or acidic foods). It restores the steel its original shine, making it look like new. It is ideal for periodic surgery or for recovering particularly worn areas such as the sink or stove.
Mistake to Avoid!
When using Regenerating Paste on steel with a brushed finish, always apply it following the brushing direction, never with circular movements. This will avoid creating streaks or altering the original finish. Always test the product on a small hidden area before proceeding on the entire surface.
Your Kitchen Stage: Always Impeccable Cooktops and Sinks
These are the most exploited and delicate areas of work. Burnt food incrustations, limescale stains and the risk of scratches are commonplace. Using specific products is the only way to clean thoroughly without doing damage.
Glass Ceramic and Induction: Deep Cleaning Without Scratches
Modern cookers are elegant and functional, but their glass surface is delicate. Caramelized sugar, overflowing milk, or fat deposits can become a nightmare to remove. Using abrasive sponges or harsh detergents is the quickest way to scratch them forever. La Sanitizing Cream for Glass Ceramic and Induction Countertops is the professional and safe solution.
This cream has a double action: its very fine particles dissolve and remove the most stubborn dirt without scratching, while its sanitizing formula guarantees a perfectly clean surface. In addition, it leaves an invisible protective veil that prevents dirt from sticking and greatly facilitates subsequent cleaning.
'A small gesture after each demanding use of the cooktop can prevent hours of fatigue in the future. Consistency is the key. '
Your Fragranite Sink Like New: Say Goodbye to Stains and Dullness
Composite sinks such as Fragranite are fantastic for their resistance and variety of colors, but they can easily stain with coffee, wine, sauce or be opacified by limestone. Normal descaling agents may be too aggressive and discolor the surface. A dedicated product is needed.
The Fragranite Sink Cleaning Detergent was developed precisely for this reason. Its balanced formula cleans thoroughly, removes limescale stains and halos while respecting the original texture and color of the material. Regular use not only keeps the sink clean, but it preserves its beauty over time, avoiding that aged and neglected appearance that no other product can solve.
Pro tip:
For particularly stubborn stains, apply the product directly to the dry stain, let it act for a few minutes, then scrub with a non-abrasive sponge and rinse thoroughly. Your sink will be as good as new!
