Clean up the cracks first, and use glue and curing agent to mix in a ratio of 10:1; apply glue after mixing, and stick masking tape around the cracks during the application process, so that it will be better cleaned after construction; Finally, after the glue is dry, tear off the tape and sand the glue with sandpaper.
Many users choose to install quartz stone countertops when they renovate their kitchens, but they find that the quartz stone cracks after a long time. So, do you know how to repair the quartz stone cracks?
1. How to repair quartz stone cracks
Clean up the cracks first, and use glue and curing agent to mix in a ratio of 10:1; apply glue after mixing, and stick masking tape around the cracks during the application process, so that it will be better cleaned after construction; Finally, after the glue is dry, tear off the tape and sand the glue with sandpaper.
2. How to avoid cracks on the quartz stone stovetop?
1). In the process of designing and splicing, users need to consider that quartz stone has the characteristics of thermal expansion and cold contraction. Therefore, in the process of splicing, a certain gap should be reserved, so as to avoid thermal expansion in the future. The problem of extrusion and cracking of quartz stone countertops occurs.
2). The edge of the hole should be ground evenly. Quartz stone stoves will be punched in the sink and other positions. Therefore, the user must perform the corresponding grinding during the process of opening the hole. It can be too small and don’t wait for extrusion when it is used, it will cause cracks on the quartz stone countertop.
3). Reserve a space for expansion. In the process of construction and installation, users need to pay attention to leave enough space for expansion on the wall. If you are worried that the expansion space will cause water to flow to the back of the cabinet, you may wish to place it by the wall. Install a water barrier so that you don’t have to worry about the water running down the bottom.
