Q: What should you not use on Silestone?

• <div><p>Silestone&reg; is a low-maintenance countertop material, but certain things, like strong chemicals and solvents, can cause damage. Abrasive scrubs can cause scratches, and products that contain oil or powder can leave a residue. Finally, avoid letting oven cleaner come into contact with Silestone&reg; because it can cause discoloration. </p></div>

Q: How often should I seal marble countertops?

• <div><p>How often you need to reseal marble countertops depends on the quality and color of the stone, the traffic on the surface, and the type of sealant. Sealing at least once a year is the general rule of thumb. However, if your large family loves to cook or the countertops are in a busy family bathroom, you might have to reseal them every six months (or more). The surfaces of your rarely used guest bathroom might not need resealing for a few years.</p></div>

Q: How long does the stone restoration or polishing process take?

• <div><p>The restoration or polishing process can take anywhere from a few hours to several days, depending on the size, condition of the stone, and accessibility.</p></div>

Q: Can you use car polish on marble?

• <div><p>You can use some types of car wax to polish marble floors, as long as the polish is designed for use on marble floors. Read the label and test the polish on a small area of the floor first to see how it interacts with the marble. Car wax can help fill in or buff away small scratches, while polishing the marble for extra shine.</p></div>
