I can see finger marks on the pantry. The rest of our kitchen is draws and I don't notice the marks on them, it may also be they are all below eye level so wouldnt notice them as easily. I think it is the location of the pantry and the way the light hits it.... We haven't actually moved in yet but hoping a wipe with the enjoy will keep them pretty clean! Very happy with the colour and shine We had the standard in a brownish colour in our last rental and that was a fingerprint/grease magnet! And it was so hard to get them off! I am hoping the smoothness of the silk will make wiping them off much easier! We had this problem too. Particularly, the pantry and the overhead cupboards, the fingerprints an greasy marks when the sun hit was incredible. Who would have thought a dark brown wood look natural laminate would look so grotty so easily? and so hard to get clean? I have gone with a polar white polygloss and hoping that the smoothness will make cleaning easier but I don't really care either way cause they look so pretty I will be happy to scrub the marks away lol Building the Leabrook with Fairmont Homes in Mallala, SA.
