Note: The first step in stone maintenance is the sealing of the stone. Generally, all granite should be sealed for easier cleaning and maintenance. Follow the manufacturers recommendations for the product you choose.

Every Day Care
Immediately wipe up spills and messes. Use pH balanced cleaners for daily cleaning. Mild dishwashing liquid works quite well on granite surfaces.
Most stones, once protected, only require occasional cleaning to remove surface build-up of dirt and grime. Sealed granite will be very easy to clean and you may want to just try warm water at first to give you the results you need; towel dry to remove streaks.
Do not use Windex or 409 because these products will slowly wear away your pentitrated sealer. These product will not harm granite, but again, you don't want your sealer to wear away either!
Do not use pledge or other wax products because these will leave a buildup and eventual dull your shine. If you have already done this, we suggest using dishwashing soap to cut away the built-up wax. Once you are satisfied that the wax is gone and the granite is looking polished again, just simply applied a stone sealer product according to the manufacturer's recommendation
