The pristine beauty of granite tile transforms any room to ageless class. But only if it is kept clean. Here are the best steps and top options to maintain that exquisite appearance.
- Dust surface dirt: Use a dry mop or duster. Top-rated Microfiber Mop and Swiffer, both in mop and duster options, get the highest marks.
- Clean on a routine: Preserve the granite luster by cleaning regularly. Use microfiber towels and mild dish soap mixed with warm distilled water. Kirkland Signature towels with a soft touch make them the popular choice. When selecting a soap, choose dye-free to prevent staining, such as Dawn Pure Essentials and Seventh Generation.
- Wipe away water spots: Use another dry microfiber towel.
- Deep clean: Deep cleaning can be accomplished daily or as necessary without dulling. Weiman Granite Spray Cleaner details in a video the benefits of using the correct product and the dangers of applying all-purpose cleaners. Make sure you use that microfiber towel.
- Polish and seal: Spectrum Stone Designs always polishes and seals your granite tile, but for a daily cleaner, Granite Gold gets 5-stars all around for daily cleaner and polish. According to the product’s own website, there are 5 Mistakes to Avoid. It’s a must-read before proceeding with this step.
