The surface of the quartz stone slab is smooth, flat, and free of scratches. The dense and non-porous material structure makes bacteria nowhere to hide, safe, and non-toxic and can be directly contacted by food. It is the biggest advantage of quartz stone countertops. There are many oil stains in the kitchen. If the items in the kitchen are not cleaned in time, there will be thick stains. Of course, quartz stone countertops are no exception. Although quartz stone is resistant to dirt, it has no self-cleaning function.
Many people have some misunderstandings about how to clean thick stains. Most people will use strong detergent and use a wire ball to clean up. This is the wrong method of operation, but I do not deny that such cleaning of other items is effective. According to the test report issued by the quartz stone manufacturer, the hardness of the quartz stone plate can reach a Mohs hardness of 7 grades, which is second only to the hardness of diamonds, so that ordinary ironware cannot cause damage to its surface. But using a wire ball to rub back and forth is not the same, causing scratches on the surface.
Correct cleaning method of quartz stone, use neutral detergent or soapy water, use a rag to clean. After cleaning, rinse with clean water and dry with a dry cloth. Although the water absorption of quartz stone is almost zero at 0.02%, the possibility of penetration or water stains should be avoided. The most important thing is the maintenance and cleaning of the splicing seam. After use, it should be cleaned in time to avoid the blackening of the splicing seam and the growth of bacteria. If there is no stone-specific wax in your home, you can use car wax or floor wax. You should wax it at least once a month.
