How to clean different types of countertops Ceramic Ceramic countertops portray a very clean and classic look but it easily loses its luster if neglected for long. Try using diluted Ultrashine or Ultraswab, depending on the countertop’s location, to make the ceramic sparkle. Granite Granite countertops are commonly found in every kitchen and it is important to keep them clean. Wipe the granite countertop regularly with mix of warm water and cleaning solution, ultrashine. Don’t forget to rinse it well to avoid streaks. To prevent your granite from getting old you need to make sure that the surface is layered with a sealant. If you want to check whether your granite is properly sealed, you can splash some water on its surface. If the granite absorbs the water rather than causing it to float, it is not properly sealed. Having a few coasters is also a good idea. The acid in coffee, fruit juice and other common beverages can create deep scratches on the counter’s surface. Laminate Laminated counters are very easy to maintain and are also good for robust handling, like preparing school lunches on the go and a quick dinner in a rush. As long as a cutting board is used, normal cleaning should keep the countertop looking great. The easiest way to wipe away oily spills is with a Kitchen towel dipped in a diluted solution of Ultraswab. Marble Marble countertops keep food items cool which makes it a great material for families who like to have fun and bake together. But just like granite, marble countertops require a seal, and without proper sealing, these countertops will soak up stains that would stay for long. For daily cleansing use wet kitchen towel for cleaning and for tough stains treat with undiluted Ultraswab for few moments and wipe clean the surface. Stainless Steel The biggest concern with stainless steel countertop is that they smudge and leave hand prints just by touching. Stainless steel countertops may require daily maintenance with soap and water to keep them sparkling. Use diluted Ultrascrub for a sparkling sink and countertop made of stainless steel.
