Granite Counter Tops

Beauty isn't the only wonderful characteristic of this unique stone. You can rest assured that you can perform your normal kitchen duties on this surface without the thought of damage. Follow these simple Do's and Dont's for years of beauty and durability:

Do's

  1. Let Acu-Chem seal the granite annually with a penetrating sealer designed for granite to protect it from oils and spills.
  2. Practice normal food preparation as you would on any other counter top.
  3. Wipe spills promptly.
  4. Clean on a regular basis with a neutral pH cleaner such as Acu-Chem's Natural Stone Cleaner or Natural Stone Cleaner and Protectant. Follow the instructions on the label.

Dont's

  1. Do not pound or strike surface or edges - results in potential cracks and chipping
  2. Do not stand on surface - results in potential cracking.
  3. Do not allow staining liquids to remain for extended periods of time -
    may result in permanent stains.
  4. Do not allow oils to lay on surface - results in dark stains.
  5. Do not use strong chemicals or abrasives - results in etching or dulling.
