Some visitors come to ask is a solid surface bathtub really stain resistant, easy to clean? We believe the question reflects most potential buyers main concern
To study a solid surface bathware’s stain resistant feature, we applied for “resistance to chemicals and staining agent” test with CTI lab in Shanghai according to “BS EN 14688 ：2015 《Sanitary Appliances-Wash Basins-Functional Requirements And Test Methods》
Test samples: 100% acrylic solid surface in size 20*20cm, glossy surface, 2pcs
Test method：Drop the reagent-Methylene blue onto sample surface, put a glass cover onto for 30 minutes, then take off the glass cover, remove the stain with deionized water or alumina with the deionized water
Result: PASS — the stain has been successfully removed by deionized water

We believe the test agent Methylene blue will be easier than other normal household chemical liquid to penetrate into a material and hard to be removed after putting for 30 minutes there, however, the test 100% acrylic solid surface samples can withstand the stain, no mark or remaining left after cleaning.
The result tell us a quality bath ware product made of 100% acrylic solid surface must be like other normal sanitary ware items, just need routine care to keep it far from dirt and long last for life span use.
Also you may be aware of the fine quality acrylic solid surface bath ware can be sanded to keep fresh like new after a couple of years using
