Clean ups are simple and stress-free

Imagine this. You’ve just had a granite countertop installed, but you have not had time to seal it yet. You’re enjoying a glass of wine before bed but slip a little bit, not knowing you’ve spilled a little bit on the surface. When you wake up in the morning, you’ve got a brand-new stain on your brand-new kitchen countertop. What a tragedy!

Change the granite countertop to VITRUM surfaces and that situation never happens. Our surfaces have been extensively tested with a range of substances – including coffee, tea and all varieties of wine! – and come up pristine every time. Our site has an extensive list of chemicals that leave no permanent mark on VITRUM surfaces when left in contact for 12 hours, so take a look and worry less about your new surface.

Choose the right chemicals for your surface

That said, it is important to choose the right chemical for your clean up. Every day maintenance can be done with warm water, a short weave cloth and a mild cleaner like dishwashing liquid, or a vinegar solution (not suitable for use on our VITRUM surfaces SEASHELL range). Avoid bleach-based cleaners and abrasive cleansers as these products are harsh enough to damage even our surfaces.

More intensive cleaning can be done with a mixture of warm water and CIF cream, or just CIF Cream for more stubborn messes. Ask your dealer if they can recommend any specialised products for your surface.
