hello I just bought a house, I’ll have a mid-March and while we renovated the bathroom and kitchen.
I chose my armoiresde IKEA kitchen boouleau medium brown color, and I think put a black granite counter and slate back splash.
do you know if it’s hard to keep clean counter black cavati be too dark?
I did some research and there are pros and cons. I think it depends very much on quality.
On the site, there are people who ask questions to experts. Here are two questions and two answers. more question you can ask granite bay area.
1.Question: Hello, please tell me how to maintain the granite, how often (how many times per month or per year) and what is the best product for this. I have granite countertops in the kitchen and the bathroom. Thank you for your good advice. -
Response:
You can put a sealer on your countertops every year and it will not damage your granite, on the contrary it will remain easy to maintain and have greater resistance to stains. As against, if your granite is dark, the application of sealer can s’espacer for two years. For pale granite, it is strongly recommended to maintain every year.
2.Matters: I just installed by a dark gray granite of work plans in my kitchen. After a month appeared a little everywhere aureoles dark plots corresponding to the glue. The specialist consulted me suggested that these traces will dry and disappear … What should I think because it is 3 months and it’s always like this?
Response:
Hello sir, some stains may take up to 6 months to disappear. The granite is installed and glued to a plywood plant and this creates a zone of moisture between the stone and wood, for this reason that the task soon to evaporate. It is also possible that the product used by your installer was based on oil, which would explain the time before the appearance of the stain.
There are currently on the market for so-called granite but are actually crossed, ie granite mixed with marble then - unfortunately in this case will not stain. The pores of the stone marble do not react the same way as granite. It aspires stain instead of to expiate the outside where it can be this time. Of course, further investigation with your provider is required to clarify once and for all you.
