Care and Maintenance of Yeyang Stone Quartz Stone Surfaces
Yeyang Stone quartz stone surfaces are non-porous and highly resistant to stains and the penetration of spills into deeper layers of the surface. As such, Yeyang Stone quartz stone surfaces are very simple to clean, care for, and maintain.
Daily Routine
Just use water, dish soap, and a paper towel, or a damp sponge to absorb any spills after food preparation. If needed, use any non-abrasive cleaner such as Formula 409, Lysol, Windex, or Fantastic to wipe away any excess. Be sure to dry the area thoroughly with a clean cloth.
Tough Spots
Leave any of the above cleaners to sit on the affected area for a few minutes.
Soak the affected area with pads of paper towels for 5 to 10 minutes.
Scrub the area gently with a non-scratch pad, such as a Scotch Brite pad, in a circular motion.
Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Dry thoroughly.
For even tougher spots, use Soft Scrub Liquid Gel (with or without bleach). Leave the gel on the affected area for a longer time and follow the same steps above. If needed, apply Windex streak-free as the final step to clean any gel residue.
Removing Adhered Materials
(Gums, nail polish, paint, etc.)
Scrape the surface with a plastic putty knife or a razor. Yeyang Stone quartz stone surfaces are very hard and will not be harmed by razor edges.
Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Dry thoroughly.
Any gray marks left by the blade can be removed with Soft Scrub Liquid Gel.
If necessary, use Windex streak-free to clean any gel residue.
Honed, Leather Finish
Honed and leather finish surfaces require more daily maintenance than polished surfaces. Fingerprints, wet spots, metal marks, and other signs of daily living show more on these types of surfaces. Apply the same cleaning guidelines with more frequency and gentler cleaning movements. If necessary, use Soft Scrub Liquid Gel to remove any difficult spots. Honed and leather finishes are not recommended for high-traffic areas.
Caution
Do not apply any sealer. Yeyang Stone quartz stone surfaces do not need to be sealed.
Do not use abrasive scrubs. Always use non-scratch pads such as Scotch Brite pads.
Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive oven and plumbing cleaners (Drano, Easy OFF, and Liquid Plumber). These chemicals will dull the surface finish.
Do not use products containing oils or powders because they leave a residue.
Do not use knives directly on the Yeyang Stone quartz stone surfaces. Always use a cutting board.
Do not place hot pots, pans, or an electric skillet directly on the Yeyang Stone surface. Always use trivets or hot pads. Extreme heat may cause thermal shock and crack the surface over time.
Minimize direct sun exposure to Yeyang Stone. Long-term exposure to direct sunlight may discolor the surface finish.
Yeyang Stone quartz stone surfaces are made to be carefree, but as with any product, excessive abuse and undue harm can damage the finish. With a little dedication and care, your surfaces will last for years to come!
