Caring for your marble in Valley View, TX

1

Wip up and remove spills immediately if possible. Oils and other staining liquids will be resisted by the sealer but over time can work their way in. If you get a dark spot or a stain from oil use a degreaser immediately and allow to dry. If the sain does not come out, call Sureshine to discuss how to perform a DIY Stain Removal. 

2

Wipe the surfaces daily using a damp microfiber cloth or soft sponge with warm water and a small amount of pH-neutral cleaner. Avoid abrasive pads or cleaners with harsh chemicals like bleach, as these can wear down the sealant over time. After cleaning, rinse the surface with clean water to remove soap residue, and dry it with a soft microfiber towel to maintain the granite’s natural shine.

3

While granite itself is resistant to acids like vinegar, it’s still best to avoid long exposure to acidic or oily substances, which can penetrate the sealant. Use coasters and cutting boards for items like oils, juices, and cooking pots to reduce the risk of staining or heat damage. In the event of a spill, blot the area immediately to prevent absorption, especially with liquids like coffee or wine that can stain over time.

4

After cleaning, spray or apply the polish and spread it evenly with a microfiber cloth. Buff the surface gently in circular motions to achieve a smooth, glossy finish. Polishing not only enhances the appearance but also makes the countertop more resistant to fingerprints and smudges.
