There are various myths and misconceptions
reside around granite worktops
in the market. In this post they are going to be cleared. I am often asked the
following questions by clients regarding granite worktops will they scratch,
will they stain, can I put a hot pan on them and do they possess supreme levels
of radon radiation.
Granite worktops in case of general
application usage would not scratch as they are found to be scratch resistant.
However it is not recommended cutting directly on your granite worktops.
Moreover this will overcast your knifes and may stained the polished surface of
your granite worktops. Due to the fact like most products if you go at it with
a carving knife you will no doubt scratch the surface. Therefore it is always
advisable to use a chopping board, which for aesthetics can be made out of the
same granite as your worktops.
In regard to staining granite worktops are
probably the most durable and difficult to stain worktops on the market.
However light color granite worktops are more accountable to staining as
compared to darker colors. Therefore utmost care must be taken in case of
lighter granite worktops particularly with red wine, acidic and alkaline liquids
as they tend to stain your granite worktops if left on their for extended
periods of time. To overcome this granite worktops are wrapped to present fluids
from being absorbed into the surface and staining them, unfortunately this is
not a cure so care should still be taken.
