Caring for Your Granite Sink

Granite sinks were created for a lifetime of easy care.  Just follow the simple guidelines listed below.

Routine Care

• Most dirt and stains: Use soapy water and a sponge, towel dry.
• Water marks: Wipe with damp cloth and towel dry.
• Difficult stains: 50/50 water/bleach solution or non-abrasive cleaners. Follow cleaning manufacturer’s instructions, rinse thoroughly, towel dry.

Preventing Damage

• Do not set hot pans directly into sinks.
• Run cold water when pouring boiling water into sinks.
• Do not use any abrasive cleaning products, scouring pads or steel wool.
• Do not use caustic solutions containing ammonia or alkalis.
