Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Any suggestions on what to use for cleaning and/or polishing?

Cleaning use any 409/Fabuloso/Fantastik/Windex like product.
Here's the care and feeding info from the horses mouth (DuPont)
http://www2.dupont.com/Surfaces/en_US/products/corian/corian_care.html

As for polishing unless you have the the atypical highly polished Corain there is no "polishing" of the typical satin finish...

Yes you can "polish" Corian to a high shine. It will also highly scratch. The process involves sanding starting at 600 and going through 3000 grit. If you have just a few slight scratches in your polished Corian, start with 1000/1500. Finish with 2000 (for a fairly shiny shine) and 3000 for a really shiny shine.

Hi Dan...yes, I clean with most any cleaner, but I do polish mine also. I like the Weimer's granite and corian polish, and I also used their Stainless Steel polish on the granite and the sinks...works great! (Can purchase both of these in Wal-mart cleaning supply section)

I also use a polish/wax, purchased at Lowe's, can't remember the name, but it is specifically for use on corian and granite tops. Rub it on and buff it off. (It's in the MH and we're in Myrtle Beach right now, or I'd go get it and give you the name)
These will give you a clean and slightly glossy look; the more you use it, the better it looks, in my opinion. Also helps keep water spots down.
Hope this helps!
Molly
