Care & Maintenance
 

Routine Care

Stone countertops requires very little maintenance. Simply wipe the surface with soap and warm water on a regular basis to maintain its beauty and shine for years to come.

Because the granite is a natural porous stone, it is recommended to seal the granite countertops one time per year, and clean it one time per month with the special granite
and marble cleaners available in the market


Difficult Spills

To remove difficult spills, wipe the surface with warm water and soap. If needed, apply a common household cleaner. For stains that harden as they dry, remove by gently scarping off of surface (using a blade or putty remover), and then clean using warm water and soap.


Extreme Heat Protection

Stone Countertops are extremely resistant to heat, and can withstand moderately high temperatures for brief periods of time without being damaged. Although all stone can be damaged by sudden and extreme temperature changes, especially near the edges. For this reason, we recommend using a trivet or a hot pad to protect your countertop surface from extreme heat.


Chemicals to Avoid

Avoid exposing your countertop surface to strong chemicals and solvents. Items to avoid include: nail polish remover, permanent markers or inks, oil soaps, and furniture cleaners or paint strippers that contain trichlorethane or methylene chloride. Also avoid exposing you countertop surface to chemicals with high alkaline/PH levels.


General Precautions

Although the granite and engineered stone countertops (not Marble) are extremely scratch and heat resistant, we recommend protecting your surface by using a hot pad or trivet for extreme heat protection, and by using a cutting board in order to avoid damage to your scissors.

 

How to Know if your Countertops is Sealed

Take the quick, water-repellency test to see if your stone has already been sealed.

Directions:

  • Make sure surface area is clean, dry and free of waxes and coatings.

  • Apply a drop of water 1 inch in diameter to the stone surface.

  • Allow the water to stand on the stone for 5-30 minutes.

  • If surface is unsealed, the water will absorb into the stone and darken the surface (absorption speed will depend on porosity of the stone). Buy On Line the products to protect your stone.

  • If surface is already sealed or if stone is very dense, the water will bead up and stand on the surface. Maintain it's beauty with Revitalizer Cleaner and Protector, see our On Line
