Clean Up For Hard Water Deposits
I came across a blog today where someone was inquiring about how to clean hard water deposits on their granite countertops. The blog sparked my attention because we get asked this same question from time to time by some customers.
Hard water build up around faucets is fairly common. It usually happens over a period of time and appears as a white sort of residue. Some customers panic and mistakenly think the residue is some sort of stain. There is no need to panic however, as the hard water residue can be removed with little effort.
To clean the hard water build up:
- Use a razor blade tipped at a slight angle from the horizontal and scrape over the build up area.
- Next use a “000″ (or finer) steel wool to rub over the area to remove the remaining residue.
This process might need to done from time to time as build up occurs, but works well. For more information, please refer to our Maintenance and Care page on our website.
Thanks for reading!
