Dekton Maintenance

When using glass cooktop cleaner, ensure you thoroughly rinse the surface with plenty of water and fresh cloths. A squeegee can assist in achieving a spotless finish. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions when handling and storing cleaning products.

Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals or solvents, especially hydrofluoric acid. While Dekton is highly scratch-resistant, using a cutting board is recommended to prevent grey marks from "metal transfer." These marks are easily removed but can be avoided altogether by using a cutting board, which also helps protect your knives from dulling.

For tough spills, apply dish soap and scrub with a Scotch-Brite pad, then rinse with warm water. For dried residues like food, gum, nail polish, or paint, gently scrape them off with a blade or putty knife before cleaning the area with soap and water. Any marks left by the blade can be quickly removed with soap, water, or glass cooktop cleaner.

Although Dekton is highly resistant to temperature changes, it’s advisable to use trivets or hot pads under hot pots and pans to minimise heat transfer. For everyday cleaning, avoid leaving household cleaners on the surface for prolonged periods.

To remove wax, adhesives, or similar substances such as rubber marks, shoe polish, or ink, use solvents like acetone, rubbing alcohol, lacquer thinner, or mineral spirits.

For rust stains, a mixture of vinegar and water or an acidic cleaner like CLR works effectively.

For smudges or smears, apply a glass cooktop cleaner and wipe with plenty of water and a clean cloth. A squeegee can also make the process quicker and more efficient. Always handle cleaning products with care and adhere to usage guidelines provided by the manufacturer.
