Care & Maintenance

Avanza is non-porous, so you can enjoy the beauty of natural stone without the worries. Unlike ordinary stone, Avanza has extremely high resistance to chemicals, scratches and stains and never needs to be polished or sealed. Avanza is also heat-resistant and will not scorch under normal cooking temperatures.

With routine care, Avanza will maintain its luster and beauty for many years.

Regular Cleaning

To clean Avanza, a damp cloth or paper towel is usually sufficient. To clean up sticky spots, a little liquid detergent can help.

As with any countertop, it makes sense to clean up spills as soon as possible. But rest assured, Avanza can withstand exposure to tea, soda, wine, vinegar, lemon juice, and fruits and vegetables without permanently staining like ordinary stone.

Cleaning Stubborn or Dried Spills

For stubborn or dried spills, Bon-Ami is an effective cleanser. It can be used daily without damaging Avanza. Other recommended cleaning products include Formula 409, Lysol, and Greased Lightening. For extremely stubborn spills, a white scrub pad such as Scotch-Brite can be used without damaging the countertop. Be sure to rinse thoroughly to remove any hazy residue that will diminish the shine and beauty of the countertop.
