The secret to cleaning your stone benchtops

So easy! - by Diana Moore
  • 25 Jan 2018

Engineered stone benchtops are renowned for being low-maintenance and easy care, continuing to shine like a brand new surface. Here’s how to give them a little TLC from time to time.

Every day maintenance

Wipe down with a warm soapy cloth

Spills and spot clean ups

  • Act fast to ensure they don’t leave a stain
  • Soak up spill and wipe away with paper towel
  • Wipe clean with a warm soapy cloth or use specialist products such Caesarstone’s spray cleaner, cream cleanser or ready-to-use surface wipes.
  • Buff with a clean, dry cloth

Stains to be wary of

  • Tumeric
  • Red wine
  • Pumpkin
  • Cordially, pasta sauce
  • Tandoori paste
  • Permanent markers

Products that can damage your engineered stone surface

  • Bleach
  • Nail polish remover
  • Oil-based soap bars and spray cleaners
  • Scourers or abrasive cleaners
  • Hot pots and roasting trays

Some manufacturers of engineered stone often sell a range of specialty cleaning products to keep your benchtops in tip top condition.
