Hi sueb262,
Thank you for your question.
All Dupont Corian sinks have a matte/satin finish. Soapy water,
ammonia based cleaners or commercially available solid surface
cleaners will remove most dirt and residue from all types of finishes.
Removing Minor Cuts and Scratches*
http://www.dupont.com/corian/a/en/h/Owner_Support/CareandMaintenanceList.html
Because the solid beauty of Corian® goes all the way through, Corian®
surfaces are completely renewable. You can remove minor cuts and
scratches yourself by following these instructions.
Judge the severity of the scratch and start with the finest grit
sanding pad to remove the scratch. (The color of the pads from
roughest to smoothest are: White, Yellow, Green, Peach, Lilac, Blue,
Gray.) Rub over scratch in a straight line to remove it. Periodically
switch rubbing direction 90°. Be sure all of the scratch is removed.
If this first step takes too long, try the next heavier grit sanding
pad. To minimize dust during sanding, wet the surface.
Rinse pad periodically to clean residue.
Clean top with water. Select next lighter grit and repeat process. Rub
over a larger area to blend in sanding.
Continue process using successively finer grits until desired gloss
level is achieved. Rinse out all pads used and air dry before putting
them away.
