Glass Care and Maintenance

Glass Care

• Glass is a simple, stain-proof, wipe-down surface. We recommend cleaning by spraying Windex on a paper towel and then wiping the countertop.
• Towel-dry after each use to avoid water spots.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners, Fantastic, or 409; they will create a haze on the glass.
• Avoid chopping or preparing food directly on the glass to prevent or minimize scratches. Also, take care not to place unglazed pottery on your glass surface.
• Hot liquids will not damage the surface, however, the use of a trivet is recommended for very hot pots and pans from the stove or oven.
• For back painted glass, take care not to scratch the bottom paint coat.

Glass Maintenance:

• Light scratches will occur as time goes by; they do not detract from the overall look or effect of the glass.
• To remove dried food, soak with water for a minute to loosen or dissolve, then wipe up with a sponge.
• Glass can be spot polished by machine to remove slight scratches. Spot polishing can cause minor changes in the curvature of the glass and can cause slight changes to the reflection.

What does it look like?

• Glass countertops offer a modern look commonly used for bar tops, countertops, and bathroom vanities.
• Available in two styles, regular and fusion, glass countertops are durable and easy to maintain.
• Regular glass countertops can be sandblasted for texture or back-painted to any custom color.
• Fusion glass is available in a variety of colors, textures, and thickness.

What can I expect?

• Small scratches are to be expected, but will not affect the structural integrity of the countertop, and can be polished out if necessary.
