CaesarStone® Care & Maintenance
TAKING CARE OF YOUR QUARTZ SURFACE
CaesarStone quartz surfaces blend modern sophistication
and timeless luxury with unbeatable strength and
durability. The ever-lasting finish requires only simple and routine care to maintain its good looks.
MINIMAL MAINTENANCE
Virtually maintenance-free, CaesarStone’s hard, non-porous surfaces require no sealing to renew the
luster and are simple to clean. In most cases, dip a clean, soft cloth into a solution of water and soap
(or mild detergent) solution and wipe away dust, smudges and residue; then rinse with clean water to
remove residue. This simple treatment is usually enough to keep your CaesarStone countertop
looking like new. If necessary, use a non-abrasive soft soap along with a non-scratch or delicate
scrub pad. Afterwards, thoroughly rinse with clean water to remove residue.
STUBBORN STAINS OR DRIED SPILLS
If needed, apply a non-abrasive household cleaners (a non-abrasive cleaner will not dull the surface
shine); rinse to remove residue. To remove adhered material such as food, gum, nail polish or even
dried paint, first scrape away excess material with a plastic putty knife and then use a damp cloth to
remove any marks or residual dirt. For extra-stubborn stains, use a no-scratch Scotch-Brite® pad
along with the non-abrasive cleaner recommended by your local CaesarStone® distributor.
HEAT TOLERANCE
CaesarStone is more heat resistant than other stone surfaces including most granite, marble and
limestone; it is not affected by temperatures lower than 300 °F (149 °C). However, like all stone
material, CaesarStone can be damaged by sudden and rapid temperature changes. Therefore, do not
place hot pots or pans directly placed on the surface. Instead place a hot pad or trivet on the surface
under cooking units such as electric frying pans, crock pots, or roaster ovens.
SCRATCH RESISTANT
CaesarStone is a highly scratch resistant surface; however avoid abuse of the surface by refraining
from using sharp objects such as sharp knives or screw drivers directly onto the surface.
CLEANING AGENTS TO AVOID
• It’s important to be aware that like any other surface, CaesarStone can be permanently damaged
if exposed to strong chemicals and solvents that can damage its physical properties.
• Never clean your CaesarStone surface with products that contain Trichlorethane or Methylene
chloride, such as paint removers or strippers.
• Avoid the use of highly aggressive cleaning agents such as oven/grill cleaners and dishwasher
polishing agents that have high alkaline/pH levels (pH 8.5 or higher).
• Products containing oils or powders may leave a residue and should be rinsed off thoroughly.
Should your surface accidentally be exposed to any of these damaging products, rinse
immediately with clean water to neutralize the effect.
