Granite Cleaning And Sealing

When you search on the internet, you will discover a variety of viewpoints and tips for sealing Granite floors and granite worktops. The primary reason is that lack of real information about the stone and just how sealers work.

Most of the darker coloured premium granites like; Black-Galaxy-Granite, Blue-Pearl-Granite, Uba-Tuba-Granite, Baltic-Brown-Granite or Absolute-Black-Granite really should not need to be sealed. But, because Granite is a natural product, differences in porosity can occur, so we really strongly suggested checking the absorbency of those varieties known to be especially dense.

Evaluating Granite for permeability is very simple. Put a little amount of water on the granite, let it sit for thirty minutes and then wipe off. If the puddle leaves a darker spot, the granite needs sealing. In the event that puddle has not left a dark area, then your Granite does not need to be sealed.

Then again, granite floors always need sealing, because tile grout is porous. When your Granite is permeable, we are going to seal your Granite with a premium Granite Sealer. The Sealer enters the Granite, providing a powerful protection.
