White quartz counter; How resistant is it to stains?
Comments (6)Thank you sooo much for your advice!! I'm committed to this stone so passing was more for peace of mind than my decision. I was going to use soft scrub right away but kept pushing it off 'next thing I do after this' over and over - when I finally did it the soft scrub product I used only faded it a little - Really upsetting! Then I saw the soft scrub gel on the shelf and decided to let it soak a little before scrubbing - when I went back to it the gel had completely dissolved it -, NO SCRUBBING, no etching, and most important NO WORK!!! YAY! My quartz passed the Sharpie test!!!!!! Thanks Joanne for your tips, they worked - I should know this, but I don't remember the exact composite of my counter - I have for gotten by now - I'll ask again - but that's irrelevant as it works, it really works!!! Nika, while the sharpie test is extreme I use them all the time and though the house rule is no sharpies for kids, the 3 ft tall picture of a man drawn by my 2 yr old at the side door is evidence that rules w/ 2 yr olds aren't always golden! Mr. clean sponge isn't all that strong compared to a sharpie- hmm maybe I should try the soft scrub? 5 months for a remodel, that's nothing, I have you beat by lots!Way to long to admit in print Rachel...See MoreBrand new white quartz kitchen counter tops.

Comments (5)Thank you. I knew that the jobs done were terrible, yet the fix guy stood there while I explained my concerns like a deer caught in headlights. Then finally just said, "So I can go?" That's the type of people my design firm has constantly brought in. The entire project has been their crews doing something, us asking "Why? That looks terrible," then the same crew coming in to incorrectly fix said item...rinse, lather, repeat. Back to the counters, they were never protected after install and I caught TONS of the workers treating them like a workbench. It was maddening, but even though I told our designer that we wanted them protected, that never happened. And here we are. I have no doubt they are going to try to convince me to ignore the issues, but I am standing firm....See Morechispa
