Soapstone is one dense stone-The surface is alike a microscopic English muffin.
Any high alkaline grease cutter will emulsify them-like mike said most soapstone are oiled-and waxed.
A good enhancer seems to work well also.

That stone should be oiled when it is new. Old guy trick. I used heated olive oil a long time ago, it leaves a residue so, not sure if it is enough to go rancid.

If I were going to do one today I would try an impregnator mixed with linseed oil.

I have a customer with soapstone counters. The spots in the picture may be light
oil food spots. What is the best way to remove them? or does it have to be poulticed.
Thanks
