How To Keep Your White Quartz Countertop Looking Like New
Oct 14, 2022
How to clean quartz is a great question to ask if you are thinking about investing in this beautiful engineered stone for your home. Quartz countertops are not so hard to care for, in fact, they are quite low maintenance. Proper care and maintenance are quite essential if you want to keep your kitchen countertops looking like new. Follow along with KJL Quartz Stone for guidance on cleaning your quartz countertops the right way!
1. Day to day cleaning
Having white surfaces is no longer a problem with quartz because it is highly resistant to staining. However, spills and dust are more visible on white than other colours. Daily cleaning will make your countertops always looking like new, but also highly hygienic. It is best to use a mixture of soap and water for day to day cleaning.
2. Removing tough stains from your quartz tops
Take a wet rag or cloth and use a cleaner. Pour the cleaner directly on the stain and let it stay there for 5 to 10 minutes before you wipe it off. Once you have wiped off the counter, you should wipe it off again using warm water.
3. Never use harsh chemicals or anything abrasive like a scrubbing cleanser on your quartz countertops. Doing so might etch the surface and luckily, quartz doesn't need harsh cleaners to be cleaned properly.
4. While quartz is one of the toughest surface materials available, it isn’t completely indestructible. Make sure to protect your countertop from heat sources. This might include crock-pots and electric cookers in the kitchen and flat irons and curling irons in the bathroom. Do place hot pans onto a hot pad or trivet instead of directly onto your countertop.
