How to Polish Granite Counter the Right Way

There are times when your granite counter starts looking down and dull. That is when it is time to repolish and reseal your granite kitchen or bathroom counter.

In most cases, it is a DIY project. But if you have no idea about how to do that or if you do not have the right materials to do that, you can consider hiring professional for this.

Want to do it yourself anyway? We have got you covered. This blog offers some useful tips to help you polish and seal your granite counter the right way. Check out the following pointers –

• • • Mix a few drops of a mild detergent or a good-quality dishwash gel into a bucket half-filled with hot water.
    • Use this mixture to clean your granite counter, and remove stains, spills, and dirt off it. Dip a sponge or old cotton towel into the mixture, wring it, and rub it to clean the counter.
    • Do not use acid or chemicals for stain removal.
    • If this mixture does not remove stains, you could consider investing in a good-quality granite cleanser available in the market.
    • Dry the counter thoroughly before moving to the next step.
    • Buy a commercial-grade, expert-recommended granite polish. Apply it gently over dried granite counter. There are different products with varying application methods, so read the product label for right method of application.
    • Buff the polish on the counter with a clean, dry cloth.
    • Wipe the surface with a wet cloth after buffing. It will help you achieve a streak-free finish.

There you have it. This is how you polish your granite counter by yourself.
