With a Soft Cloth:
Use only a soft cloth and warm water to remove the remains and the leftover particles. To clean off the debris on the surface, use only the simple solution of a mild, anti bacterial soap and warm water along with a sponge. Keep in mind that it is very important to remove any left over particles from your countertop as these can scratch and etch the surface.
Avoid Chemical Cleaners:
Harsh chemical cleaners particularly ones containing acidic substances such as lemon juice and vinegar can hole in the ground and etch the countertop. Gritty cleaners such as those appropriate for cleaning glass can result in a build-up of film and a cloudy looking countertop. In contrast to that there are a variety of cleaners especially formulated for granite countertops with neutral PH formulations that you can use. Before buying cleaners, please check the product labels of these cleaners to rule out those containing ammonia, acetone, bleach or lemon.
