In most cases, stone counter tops are not very easy to repair. To avoid having problem with your stone material, be sure to follow the manufacturer’s guidelines to prevent any permanent damage.
Your stone countertops are very easy to clean. A mild detergent (soapy water) will keep your stone looking beautiful for a long time. Avoid household products that contain acids, alkalis and other chemicals that will degrade the sealer leaving the stone more vulnerable to staining.
Rinse and dry the surface with a soft sponge after washing.
Avoid exposing your stone counter tops to strong chemicals, such as paint removers, oven cleaners, acids, oil, juices, wine, etc. If contact occurs, quickly flush the surface with water.
Do not cut directly on your stone counter top. This can cause deep and permanent scratches to appear.
Avoid directly dropping heavy or sharp objects on your counters.
Avoid excessive force on top of counter tops , especially around the rim of the sinks.
Avoid flame or applying heat directly to your stone countertops even if it may be a “heat resistant” material.
For natural stones only, to prevent staining stones, we recommend that you re-seal your counter tops every 1 to 1½ years.
