Routine Care For Quartz Surfaces
People invest in quartz because it’s an extremely versatile material that is functional and stylish. Quartz countertops are very low-maintenance, but still require a little upkeep to maintain their beauty.
Take a no-fuss approach to quartz countertop care and get surfaces that are uncomplicated — just as your home should reflect!
Get the best quartz care tips and considerations from RS Custom Countertops.
General Quartz Surface Precautions
As with any natural stone, certain exposure to heat may cause cracks due to thermal shock. Although quartz is extremely scratch- and heat-resistant, RS Custom Countertops recommends protecting your surface by using a hot pad or trivet for safe heat protection.
Hot pans, pots, or small electrical appliances should not be used directly on top of your surface as this can cause scorching, dull areas, and cracks.
Do not use crock pots, electric skillets, or griddles directly on your surface. Additionally, it is recommended that a cutting board be used to protect the stone and surface from scratches.
Quartz Countertop Maintenance
Quartz requires very little maintenance. Simply wipe your quartz surface with soap and warm water on a regular basis to maintain its beauty and shine for years to come. Any pH balanced, general-purpose household cleaner may be used.
Advanced Quartz Surface Cleaning
For grease stains, apply a small amount of Formula 409, Windex, or other common household cleaners to the stain and rub with a non-scratch scouring pad. Rinse immediately with water.

For difficult stains, spray Formula 409, Windex, or any other common house-hold cleaner on the affected area of the quartz countertop for two minutes then scrub with a non-scratch scouring pad. Rinse thoroughly with water.
Removing Stains From Quartz (Wine, Coffee, Food, Makeup, Etc.)
- Apply the appropriate cleaner with a paper towel and wipe off the surface.
- If necessary, the area may be soaked with pads of paper towels for 3-10 minutes.
- Scrub the area with a Scotch-Brite non-scratch scouring pad, rinse and dry thoroughly.
Quartz’s advanced technology makes its surface resistant to damaging chemicals. To remove difficult spills, wipe the surface with Dawn dish soap, scrub with a Scotch-Brite non-scratch scouring pad, and rinse with warm water.
For stains that harden as they dry (food, gum, nail polish, paint) remove by gently scraping the surface using a razor blade or putty knife, holding upright so as not to scratch the surface. Then clean using warm water and soap. Gray marks left by the razor can be wiped away with soap and water.
Difficult spots may be treated with one of the cleaners listed below. Leave the cleaner sitting for up to 10 minutes. Scrub and rinse thoroughly.
- Lacquer thinner
- Rubbing alcohol
- Ammonia
- Mineral spirits
- Vinegar
- Formula 409
- Windex
- Paint thinner
Caution should be exercised in the handling and storage of any of the above chemicals. Manufacturer’s instructions should be followed when using and storing these products.
Loss of Sheen
The loss of sheen on the surface of the quartz countertop may be due to the use of products such as waxes, sprays, or sealants to try to bring out the surface’s luster. However, these products become less effective over time.
This lack of sheen, therefore, has nothing to do with the original mechanical sheen of the product when it leaves the factory. To recover this sheen, a multi-purpose furniture spray that is suitable for the countertop can be used.
