MAINTENANCE

Maintenance

QUARTZ COMPAC has been created with cutting-edge technology, transforming natural quartz into a product of exceptional resistance and stunning beauty: Technological Quartz.
Given its exceptional physical and mechanical properties, this material features extraordinary hardness, resistance to abrasion and ease of cleaning. In addition, it provides countless possibilities for decorative combinations that exude beauty and elegance, of exceptionally high quality and perfect finishes.
It is the ideal material for kitchen countertops and floors, in bathrooms, as well as for surfaces that have to withstand heavy foot traffic.



Maintenance and upkeep



Given their exceptional physical and mechanical properties, the regular maintenance of QUARTZ COMPAC materials only requires cleaning with a neutral pH product/detergent. Rinse with water and dry.
For the removal of any remains or waste (e.g. oil and grease, wine, vinegar, lemon, fizzy drinks, coffee...) on the surface of QUARTZ COMPAC, all that is required is to wipe with a cloth dipped in a neutral pH detergent. Rinse with water and dry.

As an example, below are some solutions to common problems:

Grease stains: dilute a small amount of detergent in water and rub the stain with a cloth. Then rinse with water.

Water lime stains: Pour vinegar (or any weak diluted acid) onto the surface of the worktop and leave it to work for 1 minute. Rinse with water.

Silicon stains: Use a sharp blade and a little solvent (such as acetone or ethanol).



Precautions



Do not place QUARTZ COMPAC in places subject to strong direct sunlight or expose it to UV lighting.

Do not make a habit of placing very hot items on the QUARTZ COMPAC surface (deep-fryers, etc.).

Do not use water-repellents or sealers to bring out the shine

Do not use stripping agents, caustic soda, degreasing products, or products with a pH over 10 or chlorine-based. If you use bleach or a solvent you must rinse with water and never leave them in permanent contact with the surface.

The surface of the material must not be polished, and this applies to floors and worktops.
