Quartz Care

Quartz surfaces is created from pure natural quartz, an extremely hard stone crystal mined directly from the earth. In fact, quartz is the hardest non-precious stone that can be found in the earth's surface. No sealing, polishing or reconditioning is needed. Simply wash with warm water. It's that simple.

Because it is non-porous, quartz polished surfaces do not need to be sealed as do other stones to prevent staining. Unlike granite, quartz surfacing is a nearly indestructible material. It is resistant to stains caused by wine, fruit juices, liquid food coloring, tea, nail polish and remover, and felt-tip markers. Its non-porous nature is also extremely hygienic, making it a food-safe choice.

Though the quartz surface can briefly tolerate moderate temperatures for a brief time, it can be damaged by high heat and prolonged exposure to heat. Use a hot pad or trivet when placing a hot pan on it. No surface is indestructible, though. As with any other stone or surface material, strong chemicals and solvents such as Drano®, Liquid Plummer®, oven cleaners and floor strippers will damage the surface.

Caution: Must not be used with the following:



• Products containing oils or powders may leave residue.
• Repetitive use of abrasive scrub/cleaners may dull Quartz Stone’s finish.
• Use of oven/grill cleaner may discolor Quartz Stone and should be avoided.
• Repetitive exposure to extreme heat may dam­age Quartz Stone finish.

Sunlight Exposure

Continuous long-term exposure to direct sunlight (UV rays) may result in slight discoloration of Quartz Stone countertops. Most indoor applications will not apply.
