DuraLosa™ Sintered Stone Countertops
Care and Maintenance
Routine Cleaning
1. DuraLosa™ countertops are easy to maintain. It is a non-porous material that is highly resistant to stain, scratches and heat. However,
it’s not scratch or heat proof. By following the recommended care and maintenance it will help ensure your Sintered Stone surface
remains beautiful for many years.
2. Simply clean with soap and water on a regular basis and wipe dry.
3. Use a microber cloth to remove dust from the surface. Clean your DuraLosa™ countertop daily if necessary. DuraLosa™ countertops
can be washed with warm water to which a detergent can be added, used in the dose recommended by the manufacturer. Rinse with
warm water and dry with a cloth.
4. Avoid products containing hydrouoric acid and its derivatives. If liquids are spilled, it must be dried immediately. The faster you
clean and dry spills, the easier it is to remove stains. It’s not advisable to use waxes, oil soaps, impregnating agents or other
treatments (hydro-oil repellent) on the product because its application is not necessary. Some of the detergents currently on the market
contain waxes or polishing additives that after several washes can leave an oily lm on the surface.
Preventing Damages
1. Heat – DuraLosa™ countertops are designed to be resistant to heat and can withstand exposure to normal cooking environments
for brief periods of time without being damaged. Although DuraLosa™ countertops withstand heat better than most surfacing
materials on the market, all surfacing materials, including sintered stone, can be damaged by extreme temperature changes, whether
prolonged or sudden. Please use trivets and hot pads when placing hot skillets, pans, crock-pots or other heat generating kitchenware
on the surface.
2. Scratches – although DuraLosa™ countertops are resistant to scratches, cuts, and chipping, cutting directly on the sintered stone
surface should be avoided. Using cutting boards and taking care not to drop or move heavy objects on the surface will help to ensure
long-lasting beauty.
