For care of Granite Countertops

Stone are some of the easiest surfaces to maintain and adequate care, your granite countertop will stay looking new for many years.
Some points to remember:

If a spill occurs, before cleaning the stain has a chance to penetrate the surface. Granite is very absorbent and can absorb stains if spills are left any length of time.
Granite is most susceptible to oil stains and acid.
Withdrawal of diamond rings is recommended before cooking.
In general, you can clean your granite countertop with a neutral cleaner and a soft cloth. Consider using a disinfectant cleaner designed specifically for granite. With the growing popularity of granite countertops, they should be easy to find.
Chemical use regular cleaning of your counter will strip the seal and leave the porous surface of the granite exposed.

Do not be afraid to call your dealer for suggestions on stone maintenance, care and cleaning. If stains and scratches occur, there are many things you can do yourself to be deleted. Here are some examples. Stains oil-based (eg grease, oil, milk)
Mix one cup flour, 1-2 tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide with water to make a thick paste. Spread the paste on the stain, cover with plastic wrap and leave it overnight. Remove the mixture with a wooden utensil and rinse. You can also remove stains oil-based with acetone, mineral or bleach or ammonia diluted in water. (Do not mix ammonia and bleach together!).

Organic stains (eg coffee, tea, fruit)
The food, such as coffee stains, tea or fruit juice can usually be removed with hydrogen peroxide, combined with a few drops of ammonia.
Rinse after washing with the solution and dry with a soft, clean cloth.
Non-Oil Stains (eg, ink, market, wine)
Use a lacquer thinner or acetone to remove ink stains or dark stone marker. This also works for wine stains. However, a mixture of plaster cast and the pure bleach into a paste and spread over a wine, ink or other non-oil stain. Leave on for 30 minutes, then remove and rinse.
Most people make the mistake of never re-seal the granite countertops. This should be done every year or so to ensure a non-porous surface, which naturally protects porous granite and help prevent stains and damage. The frequency of application depends on the coating and the type of stone you have and the extent of your granite countertop use.
Do not let fear of the maintenance of natural stone scare you into avoiding it. There is no substitute for natural stone when it comes to beauty, practicality, and value.

Sealing Your Granite Countertops
Granite is a beautiful choice for your countertops, but how to protect it from damage is important for maintaining its shine and durability. Granite can be quite expensive, so you should make sure to protect your investment. Like all stones, granite is porous. This makes it very susceptible to stains, because they can sink into the surface. Also, some granite varieties have small cracks due to stresses on the stone during training.
Without being sealed, the surface of the granite is porous and stain easily becomes dull. While each year reseal granite is ideal, it is recommended to close at least every three years. Sealers act as a guard that prevents liquid and other harmful products from entering the surface of granite, in the first place. Sealing and resealing your granite is not difficult to do, and is well worth the work.

It is important granite before closing its sealing has expired, but if necessary, there is a simple way to check if it needs a new printing. You can take a few drops of water and drain them on the counter. If they absorb into the surface, you must close it. If the water pearls, then is your impression of working.

When resealing granite, make sure the surface is clean counter. You can use soap and water or nonabrasive cleaners to ensure cleanliness. You must make sure to get rid of any dust as well. There are many sealers on the market, so check with your installer for recommendations.

Although the closure of your granite countertop is required and can protect against many dangerous products, it does not protect everything. Liquids should always be cleaned up quickly, especially petroleum products. In the case of stubborn stains, it is recommended that you call a professional to help remove it. As always with home repair, if you have any doubts or questions about the closure and / or reseal granite, contact your installer for assistance.
