Maintenance Of Countertops

Maintenance methods for countertops of different materials
Artificial stone countertops:
Daily cleaning: Use a soft damp cloth to wipe, and avoid using detergents containing abrasives to avoid scratching the countertop. For stubborn stains, you can use a mild detergent and water to wipe it off.
Prevent high temperature: Avoid placing hot pots, hot kettles, etc. directly on the countertop. Use heat insulation pads to prevent the countertop from being deformed or cracked due to heat.
Avoid heavy blows: Do not hit the countertop with heavy objects to avoid damage.
Natural stone countertops (such as granite): Clean stains in time: Once stains are contaminated, clean them as soon as possible to prevent stains from penetrating into the stone.
Regular sealing: Natural stone needs to be sealed regularly to enhance its waterproof and stain-resistant properties.
