Natural Granite Care and Maintenance
Your granite is sealed by the installer once the job is complete. You are required to re-seal your granite once a year, to protect it from staining and keep it looking new.
You can wash down your contertops with a mild dishwashing soap and warm water, or a stone cleaner. Don't use to much soap, this may cause streaking.
Do not use any cleaning products that have lemon, vinegar, or anything with a high acid content. This may etch or harm the finished surface of your granite.
You always want to blot up spills immediately. Especially for red beverages and oily products, such as butter or vegetable oil.
