purchase of a Stonemark countertop.

How do I clean my countertop?

We recommend SCI Clean Encounters for daily use. Other SCI products can be used to either maintain or

polish the ﬁnish. Abrasive or acidic cleaners including lemon juice, vinegar and bleach should not be used.

Any spills should be wiped up as soon as possible.

Will granite maintain its polished gloss?

Yes. Regular cleaning, with recommended products and normal use, will ensure that your granite

countertop never loses its gloss. If you like a heightened level of gloss, use SCI Polish with a microﬁber

cloth.
