Granite Cleaning Products: What NOT to Use
Always check the instruction and safety guidelines on any product that you use to clean your floors, and test on a small, inconspicuous area first. As granite are natural materials, there are also some items that shouldn’t be used due to a risk of damage and scratching. Here’s what you should avoid using for granite cleaning:
- Conventional floor cleaning products – you’re better off using special granite cleaners.
- Ceramic tile cleaners, as these can dull the granite.
- Anything that’s either very acid or very alkaline – vinegar, for example.
- Rough cloths, like wire scouring pads.
- Vacuum cleaners, as the wheels and hoses can scratch the materials.
