Virtually maintenance free, Caesarstone’s hard, non-porous surfaces are simple to clean and require no sealing to renew their lustre. In most cases, soap and water or a mild detergent is enough to keep your Caesarstone surfaces looking like new. If necessary, you can use a non-abrasive soft soap along with a non-scratch or delicate scrub pad. Afterwards, thoroughly rinse with clean water to remove residue. Please note that Caesarstone finishes other than Polished may require increased daily maintenance due to their distinctive appearance.
Stubborn Stains and Spills
Life’s inevitable spills and stains can usually be cleaned up effortlessly with mild detergent or cleaner and water. To remove stuck on materials, gently scrape away the excess with a plastic putty knife or non-scratch pad and then wipe with warm water. Nail varnish or chewing gum stains can be removed with denatured alcohol, rinsing thoroughly afterward.
For extra-stubborn stains, a non-scratch Scotch-BriteTM pad is recommended along with a non-abrasive cleaner, which won’t dull the surface shine.
Heat Tolerance
Caesarstone is more heat resistant, durable and hard-wearing than other natural stones and engineered surfaces. But it does need protection from very high temperatures or sudden extreme temperature changes.
Therefore, we recommend a hot pad or trivet be placed under cooking units such as electric frying pans, crock pots or toaster ovens.
Cleaning Agents to Avoid
Like any other surface, Caesarstone can be permanently damaged if exposed to strong chemicals and solvents that affect its physical properties.
Avoid the use of strong chemicals and solvents or highly abrasive cleaning agents such as oven/grill cleaners and dishwasher polishing agents that have high alkaline/pH levels (pH levels higher than 11).Products containing oils or powders may leave a residue and should be rinsed off thoroughly. Never clean your Caesarstone surface with products that contain Trichlorethane or Methylene Chloride, such as paint removers or strippers.
Should your surface accidentally be exposed to any of these damaging products, rinse immediately with warm water to neutralize the effect.
