Care and Maintenance
Many quartzite countertops benefit from a penetrating sealer, although absorption varies by slab.
True quartzite can contain pores and natural fissures that allow oils and liquids to enter. A sealer slows absorption and provides more cleanup time.

The fabricator should recommend a compatible sealer for the actual stone and finish.
