Natural stone has a certain degree of pores, which requires a stone seal. Granite is the most dense and needs to be resealed every 2-4 years. Non-acid detergents are recommended. Such as ammonia and bleach, although they are not harmful to granite, they will fail more quickly. Stone pH neutral detergents found in grocery stores and home improvement stores work well.
Calcareous materials (marble, travertine and onyx) are not as dense as granite and require special maintenance. Acidic cleaners, foods and beverages corrode their surfaces due to their chemical composition. Etching can dim the surface of the original glossy stone. But don't worry, almost all natural stones can be restored to their natural state. Natural stone should be sealed from time to time with a stone sealant.
When should I be sealed? Only a simple test is required.
Put a glass of ice water on the stone counter. After a while, the ice water is concentrated into water drops, and the table top is wiped dry with a rag. If the stone table surface is not discolored, it indicates good condition. If the glass leaves a dark ring on the table, it means that the stone sealant has failed and it is time to reseal. This test is very simple.
Natural stone and engineered stone are the most ideal countertop products on the market. Be sure to keep your stone countertops away from dust and sand. The essence of sand is granite, which creates friction between each other. Do not place heavy objects such as boxes on the countertop, nor drag on the countertop. If there is sand between the box and the table, it will be scratched. It is wasteful and very inconvenient to produce scratches.
Granite and engineered stone are heat-resistant, allowing hot pans to be in direct contact with the stone surface without scalding or fading. This is unavoidable on the surface of other solid materials.
