How to Maintain a Quartz Countertop

1.Clean routinely with a soft rag and mild detergent. Make sure this detergent is non-bleach and non-abrasive.

2.Wipe up liquids as soon as possible. Quartz resists stains from fruit juices, tea and coffee for at least a short period of time. The amount of stain resistance may depend on the brand of quartz countertop you own.

3.Use a glass or surface cleaner and a non-abrasive sponge to clean up dried or heavy stains. You can use sponges that are made for non-stick pans. For deep cleaning, spray a generous amount of the surface cleaner over your counters and leave for 10 minutes. Wipe away with a non-scratch sponge.

4.Scrape away gum, grease or paint with a plastic putty knife.

5.Use a degreasing cleanser to clean off grease. Rinse immediately after cleaning.

6.Remove ink or permanent markers with an oil-based cleaner, like Goo Gone.Rinse with warm water immediately after the stain is removed.
