Corian for bathroom sink and counter
Comments (17)My name is Andy and have been fabricating solid surface in Southern California for 25 years. Solid surface will burn if a hot curling iron is placed directly on the material and left for a period of time. That said, we as fabricators don't have many calls about a burned Corian countertop in the bathroom. Nail polish remover with Acetone will technically make a mark on the Corian if left long enough. If you spill and wipe off there will be no effect. We actually use acetone to clean parts before gluing together in the shop. Corian is not effected by contact, but by prolonged, continuous contact. Hope that helps, Andy Olive Mill...See Morevanity counter top - granite or corian
Comments (7)I amagine there are some products that would harm granite, but nail polish remover is not one of them. The stuff my fabricator used to clean up after attaching the granite backsplash to the granite vanity was acetone, that is what most nail polish removers are. You will probably seal your granite and it doesn't take any fancy cleaning compound to keep it clean. OxyClean and water are the staples in my household, with a microfiber cloth. I think Corian is more likely to stain than granite. Think about it, granite is a natural stone, in nature it takes alot of abuse. Last time I checked there wasn't that much difference in price between the 2 materials. For easy of upkeep and looks I prefer granite, but each to his own....See MoreCafe Brown Granite Sink with Tropical Brown Granite Counter

Comments (13)Thanks everyone! Joseph, the inconspicous seam issue is exactly the Number One reason I did Corian there. Plus it's just a nice surface. Because of this board, I knew to ask to see the "Glacier White"! It's just funny because I was quartz, quartz, quartz for months but ended up with granite and Corian!...See Morekompy
