Caring for Solid Surface Countertops — What to Do, and What to Avoid

Both Corian and Dekton are low-maintenance, but a few simple habits will extend the finish and keep them looking new.

Daily cleaning

• Warm water and a soft microfiber cloth handle most spills
• Mild dish soap for anything greasy
• Avoid abrasive scouring pads on gloss finishes

What to avoid

• Do not cut directly on the surface — always use a board
• Do not place hot pans directly on Corian; use trivets
• Skip harsh solvents like paint stripper or oven cleaner
