Usually, when we use condiments such as oil and salt, it is easy to sprinkle it on the countertop. If the countertop has poor dirt resistance, the countertop will easily leave traces, which will directly affect the aesthetics of the cabinet. Quartz stone countertops have good corrosion resistance, and have good corrosion resistance to acid and alkali substances in the kitchen. The liquid substances we use daily will not penetrate into the interior. For liquids that are placed on the outside for a long time, we only need to use Clean with water or professional cleaners.

The quartz stone watch contains 93% natural quartz, which can be completely flame retardant and will not burn due to exposure to high temperature. At the same time, it also has unparalleled high temperature resistance characteristics of artificial stone watches.

Precautions for quartz countertops
1. Although the surface of the plate is generally not burned by high temperature, it is necessary to avoid local heating of the table for a long time. Do not place hot household utensils directly on the countertop to dissipate heat. It is recommended to use a pot holder with good heat insulation to protect your countertop, otherwise it will easily cause the countertop to crack.

2. Do not cut large bones on the table, impact with heavy objects or stand on the table, especially in weak parts such as stoves and water basins. Although quartz stone countertops have certain hardness and support, they cannot withstand such impact and gravity, which will cause the countertops to break.

3. Although the countertop is hard, hitting the countertop with a sharp sharp object or cutting vegetables directly on it will still leave scratches on the countertop, so be sure to put a cutting board on it when cutting vegetables.

4. The countertop needs to be cleaned in time after use. In case of stubborn stains, please do not use a wire ball to clean it. Using a wire ball to clean it will cause scratches on the surface of the board. After cleaning, it should be wiped dry with a dry cloth.
