How to damage a granite worktop with oil
Hiya,
What a day I have had!
I went to see a customer in a village near Cambridge today, because they had had a party at the weekend and one of their guests had spilt some cooking oil on the surface of their granite worktop and had left it there – mistakes happen after all..
The customer was unfortunately left with a dark patch on the surface, which had really compromised the look of the stone.
When I got to the house, the customer was in quite a state, as they had paid alot of money for the granite and installation and had felt a little gutted, as the focal point was now a huge stain rather than a shiny surface.
I told them that I would need to apply a poultice stain remover, which is a product that is used to draw the foreign substance out of the stone; it then is left to dry and then is carefully scraped off – the customer felt alot better after I had explained all of this to them.
To be perfectly honest, the poultice method does not 100% guarantee success, but it has been a good method so far for me.
I hope you have found this tip useful and if you are to spill something on your granite worktop or one of your friend’s granite worktops, then always try to clean it in the first instance…
Happy Days
