Natural stone countertops

Because of the variety of natural stones (granite, quartzite, marble, soapstone, and limestone), daily maintenance and cleaning techniques may vary from one stone to the next. Here are some general guidelines to follow regardless of the color or type of stone.  Halquist Stone recommends the following for daily cleaning:
• Clean stone surfaces with a few drops of neutral cleaner or a mild
   liquid diswashing detergent and warm water
• Do not use products that contain lemon, vinegar, or other acids
• Do not use scouring powders or creams; these products contain
  abrasives that may scratch the surface.
• Use coasters under all glasses, particularly those containing alcohol
  or citrus juices.
• Thoroughly rinse and completely dry your countertops.
  This will help remove any streaks or watermarks.
• Do not place hot items directly on the surface of your new countertop.
  Always be sure to use a trivet or hot pad.
