Is Squak Mountain Stone™ stain-proof?
When finished with a topical gloss or matte sealer, Squak Mountain Stone™ is stain-resistant.This is not the same as stain-proof, Stain-resistance means that you have time to clean off liquids and items that may leave a stain. It also means that if a stain does appear to form, that it will be easier to clean off and remove with mild cleaners after a few cleanings. Stain-proof means that nothing will leave a mark, ever. Most topical finishes will eventually wear away, which will reduce the effectiveness of the counter’s ability to resist stains. To maintain the stain-resistance of the slabs, use soft sponges and mild cleaners to clean off all spills as soon as possible, and if the sealer appears to be wearing down (the counter underneath gets really dark as soon as water or a liquid comes in contact with it), then re-seal, per the sealer manufacturer’s instructions, or apply wax, until the counter no longer turns dark.
