Granite in particular is usually harder and less porous than most other stones, so it can be easier to care for. However there are various qualities of granite – some are impervious, while some are not. Some are acid-sensitive, while some are not. These characteristics also extend across basalt and bluestone. Therefore each granite surface should be treated carefully until its true characteristics are determined.
Protecting granite, basalt and bluestone
As granite, basalt and bluestone vary greatly in porosity, and because they’re commonly used in kitchen and bathroom areas, Slique recommends that they be sealed with a Stain-Guarding treatment.
