Granite countertops are popular for their beauty and durability, but they still require care to keep them looking great year after year. Chemical cleaners, bleach, and even lemon and vinegar can strip your countertop’s sealant and damage the granite.

This should remove both oil-based stains and organic stains like tomato juice.
