Stone is a natural product and simple care and maintenance will keep it looking beautiful. Although you can always a Supreme Surface representative for questions on care and maintenance,  here are some comments and recommendations for routine care and cleaning:

Sealer

If Supreme Surface fabricated your granite countertops, then they have been sealed at least once with a penetrating sealer that will last 10 - 15 years.

Dry Areas

• Clean stone surface with a few drops of neutral cleaner, stone soap (available at supreme surface) or a mild liquid dishwashing detergent and warm water.
• Use a clean rag
• Too much cleaner or soap may leave a film or cause streaks.
• Do not use products that contain lemon, vinegar or other acids on the granite. A high acid content may etch some granite surfaces.
• Rinse the surface thoroughly after washing with the soap solution and dry with a soft cloth.
• Change the rinse water frequently.
• Do not use scouring powders or creams; these products contain abrasives that may scratch the surface.

Bath and Other Wet Areas
In the bath or other wet areas, soap scum can be minimized by using a squeegee after each use. To remove soap scum, use a non-acidic soap scum remover. Frequent or over-use of an ammonia solution may eventually dull the surface of the stone.

Do's
• Dust Surface Frequently.
• Use a mild detergent or stone soap.
• Thoroughly rinse and dry the surface after washing.
• Blot up spills immediately.

Don't
• Don’t use vinegar, lemon juice or other acidic cleaners.
• Don’t use cleaners that contain acid such as bathroom cleaners, grout cleaners or tub & tile cleaners.
• Don’t use abrasive cleaners such as dry cleansers or soft cleaners.
• Don’t mix bleach and ammonia; this combination creates a toxic and lethal gas.
