Does quartz stone countertops bleed and how to maintain quartz stone countertops

On the market, quartz stone cabinet countertops also have advantages and disadvantages. Good quartz stone countertops are impermeable, but inferior ones will not. So, how can we distinguish the quality of quartz stone countertops more correctly?

How to judge the quality of quartz stone cabinet countertops

The most important thing to buy quartz stone cabinet countertops is to look at the finish, because of the finish It means that it will not absorb color. Quartz stone is very troublesome to absorb color. If you get a little oil, you will not be able to remove it. I will teach you a method. Buy a marker and draw it on the countertop of the quartz stone cabinet to see if it can be wiped. If you can’t wipe it off, it won’t absorb the color. If you can’t wipe it off, don’t buy it. The quartz stone produced by a regular manufacturer has a code on the back. Pay attention to the logo.

Hardness is the identification in terms of wear resistance. The simple method is to use a steel knife to draw, and the key cannot be used for identification. Take the 'white crystal' as an example. A steel knife traverses it, leaving a white mark on the fake quartz stone. Because the plate is not as hard as steel, the surface is cut by the steel knife, revealing the white inside. While the pure quartz stone is scratched by a steel knife, it will only leave a black mark, which is caused by the steel knife not moving the quartz stone, but leaving traces of steel, one black and one white, true and false.

Because of its higher hardness and density, quartz stone is less prone to bleeding than artificial stone. However, if it is soaked for a long time, the countertops of any material will bleed, and the quartz stone is only slightly smaller. So we still have to learn some daily maintenance and cleaning methods.
