All About Stone
You are more likely to dull your knife than scratch your granite, quartzite, or quartz. Marble can be scratched by normal kitchen wear including cutting. A cutting board is recommended in any case.
Everyday Tips
Use a microfiber cloth and any stone cleaner or a 50:50 mix of water and isopropyl alcohol with a tsp. of dawn dish soap. Simple Green is also effective. Avoid abrasive or acidic cleaners which can strip the sealer and etch the stone.
How We Operate
Etching occurs when acid in some form reacts with the calcium in marble and limestone leaving a hazy spot in the surface. Granite is more resistant to etching.
What to Expect
With natural stone products, once a deposit is paid, the slabs chosen by the client are reserved for his/her project. Quartz slabs are very consistent making the reservation fo specific slabs unnecessary. The client can work with their designer to determine a layout of the location of the pattern in the project
