Try the following..take some acetone and some #1 grade steel wool and rub it on the spot until it dries. .This will usually get rid of the dull marks..If the stone is light it might leave a gray discoloration. If this is the case than use a hogs hair pad in place of the steel wool

Acid won’t affect it

 

Taking care of it might be an issue but as well as an opportunity for all us.

 

Talk to your local supply shop -  see if they have a representative who will do the work, if not then offer to be there Tradesman rep for the area.

 

Silesstone -  do have reps

Cease stone - do not

 

I have been in conversations with both these companies as they are the dominant ones in our city and both have told me that  if we, as tradesman touch the surfaces, we will void the clients warranty.

 

I am hoping to strike a deal with one of these companies, once that’s established, then through John’s  school, I am certain we can all get the proper training to handle these stones while will be In need in the close future.

 

Upon reflection though, being a small operator like yourself I find it difficult to make such deals. Perhaps John, Debbie or Doc, you could make this possible for all of us to be accredited Quarts counter polishers.

Hi all. I just came across a polished quartz countertop that had 2 3 dull spots. I did a vinager test and it did nothing so its not etch marks . What could it be and how would I take care of the problem?
