Read labels carefully before using over-the-counter products.
 



To maintain the natural beauty of your stone,
follow these guidelines:
  • Clean stone surfaces with a neutral cleaner, such as dishwashing liquid and warm water. Use a soft cloth for best results. Too much soap may leave a film and cause streaks.
  • There are over-the-counter cleaning products that are safe to use on stone surfaces. Read labels carefully to determine which products are appropriate.
  • Do not use scouring cleansers or products that contain lemon, vinegar or other acids, as these products may etch the surface.
  • Spills should be cleaned up immediately to avoid staining.
  • Although natural stone is heat resistant, it may not withstand the direct transfer of heat. Always use hot pads underneath hot pans and dishes.
Do:
  • Clean with water and a nonabrasive, mild pH, neutral soap.
  • Blot up spills immediately.
  • Use a cutting board.
  • Use a hot pad under hot items.
Don’t:
  • Stand on or apply excessive weight not intended for your countertops.
  • Use ammonia, bleach or other general-purpose cleaners.
  • Use scouring or abrasive cleaners.
  • Use bathroom, grout or tub- and tile cleaners.
