Few options compete with the depth and beauty of granite.

One of the toughest materials on earth, granite is long lasting, durable and available in a variety of unique crystal colors, textures and patterns. Granite used as a countertop material is resistant to scratches, acids, stains and heat. It is one of the most bacteria resistant to kitchen surfaces and unaffected by citric acid, coffee, tea alcohol or wine. It is almost impossible to scratch and with proper cleaning it will not stain under normal use.

Clean regularly with warm water and a clean, non-abrasive cloth. Special products are recommended for cleaning and revitalizing granite. Non-compliant cleaning products for use with natural stone products may darken or otherwise change the appearance of the granite. Do not use products that contain lemon, vinegar or other acids. Don’t apply powders or cleansing creams that can scratch the surface. Do not use very alkaline cleaners or window cleaners.

Granite, like other natural stones, is porous and can absorb leaks and stains if left untreated. Waterproofing with a quality product will prevent most stains from affecting your investment. When choosing a sealer, select one created for your specific needs. For example, choose one that repels oil and water stains if your stone is in the kitchen or other dining areas.
