STONE CARE
Stone product maintenance is easy once you learn how to do it the right way. Without the proper knowledge it's also easy to make damaging mistakes. If you have a problem, we are here to help! You'll get the expert advice you need in our downloadable care pamphlets. Each one has in-depth explanations, proven solutions and step-by-step instructions to help you solve and avoid a variety of issues related to granite countertop care, marble maintenance, sealing, stains, glass-rings and more.
Don't make the mistake of using generic or common household cleaning products on your stone. Common cleaners will damage your stone! Using products specifically formulated for marble cleaning, granite and natural stone is a must to preserve the beauty and prolong the value of your investment and help you avoid costly repairs.
PRECAUTIONS
• Use coasters under all glasses, particularly those containing alcohol or citrus juices. Many common foods and drinks contain acids that will etch or dull a stone surface.
• Do not place hot items directly on the stone surface. Use trivets or mats under hot dishes and placemats under china, ceramics, silver or other objects that can scratch the surface.
• Clean surfaces with a mild detergent or stone soap
• Thoroughly rinse and dry the surface after washing
• Don't use vinegar, lemon juice or other cleaners containing acids on marble, limestone, travertine or onyx surfaces
• Don't use cleaners that contain acid such as bathroom cleaners, grout cleaners or tub & tile cleaners
• Don't use abrasive cleaners such as dry cleansers or soft cleansers
• Don't mix bleach and ammonia; this combination creates a toxic and lethal gas
