Daily care reqires nothing more than wiping of your countertop surfaces with non-abrasive cleaning agents such as glass cleaners, soapy water or a damp cloth. For surface staining, soapy water or ammonia-based cleaners will usually do the job. For stubborn stains and superficial scratches, an abrasive cleaner and a wet sponge are recommended. A Scotchbrite (burgundy color) abrasive cloth may be used for stubborn scratches and routine refinishing. Be sure to cover a wide area when using abrasives to reduce the likelihood of an uneven surface finish. It is, in fact, a good idea to go over all your countertops to an even factory-like finish.
