Michigan’s Best Quartz Countertops

Although quartz will resist permanent staining when exposed to liquids like wine, vinegar, coffee, lemon juice, soda, and so on, it’s important to wipe up spills immediately, before they have a chance to dry. Quartz surfaces should be wiped clean with a damp soft cloth, such as a microfiber cloth or paper towel. Carefully dry the surface to remove any food residue, crumbs, or other soils. For best results, we recommend wiping any liquids from your quartz surface immediately to prevent damage.

You can create a disinfectant solution with an 8:1 ratio of clean water and rubbing alcohol. To do so, you will combine 1/4 cup of rubbing alcohol and two cups of water in a spray bottle. We recommend adding 1-2 drops of an essential oil of your choice – lemon, lavender, etc. to give you a smell-good clean! When using the solution make sure an even layer is sprayed on the surface – the mixture will need to sit for 2-3 minutes to be most effective.

You should always refer to the manufacture’s guidelines for the specific product of quartz you own, however, here are a few tips we can offer:

Routine Soils: Use a mild soap and clean warm or cool water to wipe clean the area with a soft cloth. After washing the area with soap make sure to rinse clean with cool water and dry thoroughly.

Set-In Soils: For tough stains like cooking grease, nail polish, gum, and more, cleaners like window cleaner, Formula 409, and other common household cleaners may be used. Simply spray the area down and let the product sit for 2 minutes then scrub with a non-scratch pad (e.g. Scotch-Brite)
