Suggestions for the Care and Cleaning of your Stainless Steel Sink Soft Satin Finish Chlorides Elkay's soft satin finish is a non-dir ectional swirl finish. Regular cleaning is important to maintain the appearance of your Elkay sink. Today, chlorides are found in most all soap, detergents, bleaches and cleansers; chlorides can be appressive to stainless steel. However, chlorides are very water soluable.
