Malibu Home Bathtub Care & Cleaning

We know you love your new bathtub just as much as we do, therefore we want to help you take care of that beautiful new addition to your home. 

The lustrous finish on your product should be treated with care. Most finishes will age gracefully depending on the climate, exposure, handling, cleaning, and routine maintenance.

Please follow these General Care & Cleaning Guidelines:

  • Wash surfaces gently with a soft damp cloth; use a neutral liquid soap with water for daily cleaning.
  • Rinse completely with water, dry any overspray.
  • Never use an abrasive material such as a brush or scouring pad to clean surface. The use of abrasive cleaners, cleansers or disinfectants will alter the surface finish and void the warranty.
  • Avoid placing razorblades or other sharp instruments on the surface, as they may scratch it.

For the very serious amongst you - we also suggest a semi-annual wax routine. Using a high quality clear carnauba paste wax, massage a small amount of wax and polish with a clean soft cloth. 

Note - that prolonged contact with certain items such as toothpaste, air freshener, cologne, shaving cream, nail polish remover, vinegar, anti-bacterial soap and wines will also alter all surface finishes and void warranty.

To remove accumulations of bath residue from the whirlpool or air jet system, it is recommended that whirlpool bath be purged at least once a month. We recommend Oh Yuk whirlpool bath system cleaner specifically for this purpose.
