What are the best ways to deal with stubborn stains and unsightly scratches on your countertops and work surfaces | Kitchen Countertop Maintenance Tips

Introduction | Kitchen Countertop Maintenance Tips

In today’s post on house maintenance. We’ll be looking at preserving the structural integrity and appearance of one of the most well-used surfaces of your homes.

From a hardwood office desk to a marble kitchen counter, here are some tips on what you should and shouldn’t do to get those ghastly marks out.

Hardwood

Hardwood is a classic material that demands high maintenance to retain its beauty and functionality.

While it comes in different grades that offer varying levels of damage resistance. Wood is innately prone to physical damage like scratches or warping due to moisture unless it is sealed or varnished.

Beautiful and rustic, how easy is it to keep a hardwood countertop clean and looking good? ©hgtv

Physical | Kitchen Countertop Maintenance Tips

Wooden work surfaces like office desks or dining tables usually enjoy lighter physical workloads than a hardwood flooring.

Dining tables and kitchen countertops are often damaged by heat from hot kitchenware or a steaming cup of coffee.

While such a scenario is completely avoidable with the use of coasters and insulating cork boards. These marks are usually permanent and cannot be salvaged.

Meanwhile, minor scratches can be buffed out of softer sealants, while deeper gouges may require patching by a professional.

Regular cleaning consists of a microfibre cloth and a soft brush, with the occasional damp wipe down.

Chemical | Kitchen Countertop Maintenance Tips

Synthetic coatings like polyurethane can be cleaned with most household chemicals.

While natural materials like shellac or beeswax require special attention in avoiding oil-based or alcoholic cleansers. Any spilled liquids, water or coffee, should be cleaned up immediately.

Vinyl

Vinyl is a common material well known for its low cost. It comes in different qualities with corresponding price tags that offer varying levels of damage resistance and durability.

Although easy to clean. Vinyl is not able to take high heat and doesn’t age well, resulting in warps and cracks as it degrades

Physical | Kitchen Countertop Maintenance Tips

Vinyl is often used for kitchen countertops in larger sheets rather than small tiles. Occasionally as a backsplash protector above sinks.

While it is highly resistant to impact, vinyl is rather prone to scratches as it is a softer material. Thankfully, it is non-porous and highly stain-resistant, so cleaning is easily done with warm water, a wet rag, and common cleansers.

Definitely avoid abrasive scrubs.

Chemical | Kitchen Countertop Maintenance Tips

While relatively chemical-resistant, vinyl is notorious for staining when exposed to rubber.

Avoid contact with rubber in slip-resistant kitchenware and other sources. Cleaning can be done frequently with household cleansers to remove grease and grime.

Stains are rarely an issue thanks to the material’s innate stain-resistance.

Marble

While it is among the most premium materials, marble is a high impractical work surface.

It scratches easily, gets stained by almost any substance, and is difficult to clean while avoiding damage to its surface.

Not recommended for the functionality-minded homeowner.

Oozing of luxury and class, marble countertops are beautiful and refined. But does the cost justify the amount of work and care required to keep it in top form? ©housebeautiful

Physical | Kitchen Countertop Maintenance Tips

Scratches on a marble table or countertop are an inevitability. While you can buff out gouges, cracks and chips cannot be patched without losing a fair amount of aesthetics.

Marble is also prone to thermal shock, where sudden exposure to high temperatures can cause the material to crack and chip.

To minimise damage, eliminate grit and dirt with frequent cleaning and use coasters or protective pads for cookware. Clean only with a soft brush or wet rag and avoid abrasive cleaners at all costs.

Chemical | Kitchen Countertop Maintenance Tips

Marble is a highly reactive natural material.

If stained by liquids like coffee or sauces. You may employ specialised marble cleansers or homebrew consisting of a thick paste of baking soda and water. Apply it to the stain and cover with cling wrap for up to 24 hours before clearing.

Take care not to scratch the marble with the gritty paste. Otherwise, clean only with marble cleansing solutions or warm water.

Metallic Epoxy | Kitchen Countertop Maintenance Tips

Metallic Epoxy is a premium material that sees parity with marble, but with a surprisingly high level of durability and low level of maintenance.

Besides being highly resistant to impacts, scratches, and chemical corrosion. It is waterproof and can be easily repaired, the perfect attributes for work surfaces that see frequent use.

Metallic Epoxy consists of a body of epoxy coated with a protective polyurethane topcoat.

Physical | Kitchen Countertop Maintenance Tips

Depending on the finishing you opt for, light scratches are practically non-existent.

Deeper gouges on the topcoat can be refinished without affecting the rest of your countertop and at one’s leisure. Also the underlying epoxy is almost as resistant to damage as the topcoat.

Vigorous cleaning with rags or brushes are fine, just avoid any abrasive cleaners.

Chemical | Kitchen Countertop Maintenance Tips

Metallic Epoxy and polyurethane are highly chemically resistant and can be cleaned with any normal household cleanser.

They also do not stain and require no stain prevention or removal.

Conclusion | Kitchen Countertop Maintenance Tips

A recurring theme among the first three materials is the need, and corresponding cost, for regular patching and/or specialised maintenance.

Hardwood

Wooden surfaces must be recoated immediately if the wood itself is exposed, since exposing the wood to moisture results in irreversible damage. They also require specialised cleansers if natural sealants are used.

Vinyl

Even vinyl, the king of economy, is subject to these constraints. Vinyl’s greatest strength lies in its low cost of replacement – in tile form, that is.

Vinyl countertops are often installed in large sheets of vinyl to minimise seams that can trap dirt and grime, especially in kitchens.

This means that when replacement is necessary. One can either live with an ugly patch work of vinyl where the damaged segment is cut out and replaced, or bear the cost of replacing the entire sheet of vinyl.

Marble

Marble is a clear-cut case of aesthetics outweighing all else. Its only redeeming qualities are its perceived beauty. It has value only because people think so, and not by any useful property of its own.

Besides being expensive to install, it demands coddling and painstaking maintenance. Making heavy usage a nightmare for the practical homeowner.

Metallic Epoxy

Metallic Epoxy, on the other hand, suffers none of the drawbacks that these other materials do.

It is mind-numbingly easy to maintain. Highly resistant to all forms of damage, and can be repaired flexibly without affecting its structural integrity or aesthetics.

How do you deal with stubborn stains and unsightly scratches on your home floor | Best Floor Maintenance Tips

Trying to get rid of tough stains or even scratches can leave you extremely frustrated ©giphy

Introduction | Best Floor Maintenance Tips

Wear and tear are part of life. Both are inevitable and best accepted with a brush in one hand and a spray bottle in the other.

However, every flooring material has its quirks. Stains and scuffs that stick on one material may come right off another. For the conscientious homeowner, here’s a brief guide on keeping your floors looking as good as new, year after year.

Maintenance is sorted into two groups, physical and chemical, for handy reference.

the floor is not clean gif
Depending on your floor material, sometimes cleaning hard and often can actually make it easier to get dirty or stained quicker ©giphy

Hardwood

Hardwood is an elegant material with a classic look but requires considerable upkeep to maintain its structural integrity and appearance over time.

It varies greatly in quality. Some woods are harder and more water-resistant than others. However wood itself is prone to scratches or splintering if not protected.

Contractors typically offer a polyurethane topcoat or a protective varnish that seals off the wood. Protecting it from moisture and protects it from scratches, impacts, and abrasion.

Hardwood looks beautiful in any house, but we do really have to consider the type of climate you are located in ©bosscarpetone

Physical |  Best Floor Maintenance Tips 

Biannual topcoat maintenance removes built-up dirt.

However, deep gouges that expose the underlying wood must be patched before the wood gets damaged. Daily cleaning with a microfibre cloth and a soft brush removes grit and dirt that can scratch the topcoat.

Shellac and beeswax can be buffed to remove scratches between professional maintenance every three to five years.

Chemical | Best Floor Maintenance Tips 

Depending on what topcoat or sealant you use. From synthetic coatings like polyurethane to natural materials like shellac or beeswax, cleaning methods will vary.

Polyurethane coatings are hardier and can be cleaned with typical household cleaners. Natural coatings like shellac have special cleaning directions. For example, shellac breaks down in oil-based or alcoholic cleansers.

Spilled liquids should be cleaned up immediately since all hardwoods are vulnerable to standing liquids.

Vinyl

Vinyl is an exceedingly common synthetic material. It is resistant to impact, waterproof, and is soft underfoot.

It is widely used thanks to its low cost, but comes in pricier and higher quality options as well. Topcoats are available for vinyl flooring as well. However the cost of application and maintenance often exceeds the cost of simply replacing the vinyl tiles.

Physical | Best Floor Maintenance Tips 

Vinyl is soft and can be scratched by fine grit or sand. Hence, care must be taken to keep your floor clean to protect the vinyl tiles.

Any scratches on uncoated vinyl tiles are usually cosmetic, since they’re vinyl all the way through. If scratches get too deep or unsightly, you may replace the tile.

Chemical | Best Floor Maintenance Tips 

Vinyl is infamous for its reactivity with rubber. Shoe heels, rubber floor mats, and furniture leg protectors are some of the common culprits of unsightly and permanent stains on vinyl flooring.

Owners report seeing results when using a rag with WD-40 or mineral spirits to rub off these stains. Otherwise, vinyl is relatively chemical resistant and can be cleaned with normal household cleansers. It generally won’t stain from coloured liquids like wine or juices.

Marble

Marble is a premium material that requires a proportionately premium level of maintenance.

It chips and scratches easily, gets stained by many things, even water, and is difficult to clean without damaging its surface. But to some, its characteristic beauty is worth every tedious step of maintenance.

Floor Maintenance Tips

Physical | Best Floor Maintenance Tips 

There is little one can do for a scratched marble surface except buffing out deeper gouges.

To minimise scratching, you should keep your marble floor free of grit and dirt, and clean only with a soft brush or wet rag.

Since marble floors usually consist of tiles. The grouted recess between tiles usually accumulates dirt and needs particular attention to keep clean.

Chemical | Best Floor Maintenance Tips 

Marble is a very reactive natural material. Slightly alkaline water or acidic sauces are chief among the liquids that can permanently stain marble surfaces.

Besides special marble cleaning solutions, you may try applying a thick paste of baking soda and water to the stain and place a layer of cling wrap over the paste.

Leave the mixture for 24 hours before cleaning it off, taking care not to scratch the marble with the grit in the paste.

Metallic Epoxy | Best Floor Maintenance Tips 

Metallic Epoxy is a premium material on the scale of marble but with an unsuspectingly simple maintenance routine.

The material is an epoxy body with metallic pigments suspended within. Usually protected with a top coat of polyurethane.

Besides being highly resistant to impacts, scratches, and chemical corrosion, it is waterproof and can be easily repaired.

Physical | Best Floor Maintenance Tips 

Damaging an epoxy flooring is like damaging a hunk of steel, it’s steel all the way down.

Beneath a tough, gritty topcoat of polyurethane is a body of epoxy with similar durability to its topcoat. Scratches in epoxy flooring are usually negligible thanks to the material’s toughness. However deeper gouges can be refinished without affecting the other parts of the floor.

Vigorous cleaning can be done with any mop, just avoid abrasive cleaners.

Chemical | Best Floor Maintenance Tips 

Metallic Epoxy flooring’s chemical resistance allows cleaning with any normal household cleanser.

Since it doesn’t stain, no steps are required for stain removal besides regular cleaning with warm water and a mop.

Repair Costs Add Up | Best Floor Maintenance Tips 

As the adage goes, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Fragile materials on a surface as well-used as your floor tend to need more maintenance, the costs of which can add up.

The best way to avoid these costs is to take care of your floors. But that takes money and time too, especially with materials like marble which require special cleansers.

Homeowners who realize this fact early often see Metallic Epoxy for the wonder material that it is, sturdy with low maintenance, reparability in the face of deep damage.

Characteristics that make Metallic Epoxy the crown jewel of an industry.

What is Metallic Epoxy?  

Metallic Epoxy consists of the main body of epoxy with ornamental metallic pigments suspended within.

The main body is often finished with a polyurethane topcoat that further protects it from physical and chemical wear.

Benefits of Metallic Epoxy
The beauty of Metallic Epoxy Interior begin with what's inside: the colourful Metallic Pigment powders mixed within.

How is Metallic Epoxy Installed?  

To understand the science behind Metallic Epoxy’s brilliant abilities, we need a brief insight into the application process.

Before it solidifies into the nigh-impervious slab of excellence you would expect. Metallic Epoxy is a viscous mixture known as liquid epoxy resin.

The resin is poured and spread across a designated surface by experienced installers. This phase must be completed quickly and smoothly before the resin begins to cure and solidify.

For a more detailed description of how our Metallic Epoxy installation works.

workers installing metallic epoxy
Experience, proper technique and skills are required for a life-long epoxy finish.

After the epoxy fully cures, a comparatively thin layer of liquid polyurethane coating is spread over the epoxy body.

This protective layer is even tougher than epoxy and can take the brunt of everyday use, but requires the support of an epoxy body beneath it.

For more details on the types of finishings / protective layers you can choose, head over to this post.

“PORE” Favor? | Benefits of Metallic Epoxy 

Now that you know how Metallic Epoxy is generally installed. You may have noticed a recurring theme.

The main components of a Metallic Epoxy system are liquids that harden into a smooth, continuous layer without any pores.

por favor juan
"Excuse me?" Well, take a seat and let us show you! ©mindyourlanguage

Why is having a Non-Porous Surface Important 

This property is extremely important because porous materials are terrible for your home.

A porous kitchen counter or bathroom floor is full of microscopic holes that trap organic debris such as bits of meat and human bodily waste.

The pores, now packed full of debris, provide bacteria and mould with a warm place to sleep and good food to eat. None of which make for a clean home.

Materials such as natural stone and ceramic tiles are innately full of pores. Worse still, they are segmented and require grout.

Grout is a mixture of fine sand and cement used to fill gaps between tiles and stone. If you’ve grouted tiles or stone at home, you’ll notice that the grout is always the first to grow black scum in wet areas, or trap dirt in a recessed area that is highly inconvenient to clear.

Metallic Epoxy – no pores, no bacteria, no mould, no sweat.

Water Off A Duck’s Back | Benefits of Metallic Epoxy 

Metallic Epoxy is waterproof. So are our floor tiles, you protest.

Well, floor tiles may seem like it. Depending on the material, the ceramic or stone may actually absorb a portion of the water, as some stones do.

Do remember tiles inevitably comes with grouts.

Sometimes, you get soaked, even with an umbrella. Just because you don't see it, doesn't mean water is not getting absorbed. ©imgur

In fact, marble is notorious for its adverse reaction to water, which is typically slightly alkaline or acidic, depending on where you live.

Marble exposed to such water quickly forms obvious and unsightly stains in a process known as etching. You can read more HERE.

So no, stone and ceramic tiles are generally water-resistant, but hardly water-proof.

Stains | Benefits of Metallic Epoxy 

This brings us to our next point – stains. Metallic Epoxy is stain proof. Not stain-resistant, but veritably stain proof.

Marble, ceramic tiles & wood can be stained by the simple spillage of food or drink.

However, such worries are moot with a Metallic Epoxy Interior, which is chemically inert and non-porous.

Advantages Of Metallic Epoxy
The non-porous and seamless design makes cleaning a breeze from coffee stains, spray paint, even motor engine oil!

Too Good to Be True? | Benefits of Metallic Epoxy

Well, yes. There’s actually a common drawback in a crucial process of any Metallic Epoxy finishing. This is the application of a polyurethane topcoat.

Savvy homeowners may know that traditional polyurethane coatings are extremely tough. However, they emit a high level of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) during application.

This stinks up your house and may cause or exacerbate respiratory problems for anyone around the work site. It gets worse, traditional oil-based polyurethane coatings continue to give off small amounts of VOCs.

This happens even after fully drying, for years after installation.

“If it’s toxic, why is it still being used?” you wonder.

james franco wait what
Is this some kind of weird, reverse psychology marketing technique? ©imgur

No, not really. We simply avoid the entire problem by using water-based polyurethane top coats.

These modern water-based improvements on the traditional coating drastically reduce the amount of VOCs emitted during application. The level is so negligible that our installers require no special gear, just a moderately ventilated room.

lisa kudrow that's right
Our products are certified non-toxic by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and United States Department of Agriculture (USDA)! ©giphy

You Visualise, We Realise | Benefits of Metallic Epoxy

The cherry on top of the multi-layered epoxy cake is, of course, the term Metallic in Metallic Epoxy.

It originates from the process in which metallic pigments of a specific colour are suspended in the epoxy during the curing process.

A design team works with the installers to create three-dimensional swirls within the suspended pigments in accordance with your desired design. The Metallic Pigments scatter and reflect light in a manner unique to Metallic Epoxy.

This allows for exotic designs such as galaxies full of stars, or a brilliant night sky.

The base colour of your Metallic Epoxy, and any additional colours, can also be changed to fit any design your mind can conjure.

You are limited only by your imagination. If you were dead set on a specific material for its characteristic look and feel. A Metallic Epoxy Interior might just be an acceptable alternative that will last you and your family decades.

Take care of your belongings and they will take care of you | Metallic Epoxy Maintenance Tips

This piece of old-world wisdom speaks of caring for objects so that their ability to serve you is maximally preserved.

The adage is particularly true for tools that see frequent use for important functions and are expected to last a long time.

Take a knight’s sword, for instance. It must be regularly polished and oiled to keep rust at bay. Sharpened before and after battle to maintain its edge, and brought to a blacksmith if it needs specialist care.

Introduction | Metallic Epoxy Maintenance Tips

Your home and its components fit very much into this category. It’s where you spend a third of your life sleeping, and up to another third, or more, if you’re introverted.

In an ideal world, the amount of care spent on your home would be proportionate to the hours spent in it. Unfortunately for most of us with full-time jobs, and no full-time domestic helpers, that’s hardly a reasonable expectation.

Fortunately, Metallic Epoxy surfaces are tough and it’s more an issue of what not to do. Here’s a complete breakdown of the care your Metallic Epoxy deserves.

Metallic Epoxy Maintenance Tips
Cleaning your Metallic Epoxy surface is a breeze!

Recommended Steps | Metallic Epoxy Maintenance Tips

A good Metallic Epoxy costs nearly as much as a premium flooring or countertop surfaces, such as marble or granite.

Suffice to say, a proportional amount of care and a healthy dose of common sense would keep your epoxy coating strong and happy. There’s really nothing special about keeping an epoxy surface clean.

General Cleaning 

Metallic Epoxy’s non-porous surface and chemically inert nature make it a breeze to clean if you make a mess.

Simply use any general-use household cleaner (like JIF/CIF cleaner) and a wet cloth. You’ll notice that the offending substance comes right off.

Frequency of Cleaning

Next comes the frequency of said cleaning. Metallic Epoxy topcoats come in mainly five varieties — mirror, gloss, gloss anti-slip, matte and matte anti-slip.

You can read more about the properties of each topcoat through the blog post link HERE. The gist of it is that a mirror finish trades strength for a beautiful exterior. A matte finish trades its sheen for much higher durability, and a gloss finish is a compromise.

Things to Note

While a matte finish is more durable. The additional grittiness of the topcoat tends to trap dirt and lint a little more readily than a gloss or mirror finish.

With a little elbow grease, homeowners tend to find the more frequent cleanings a small trade-off for the rugged strength of a matte finish.

Lastly, always wipe down any surface thoroughly after a period of heavy usage. For instance, deep-frying in the kitchen or house guests visiting during the new year.

Remember, scratch and impact resistant does not mean scratch or impact proof!

Things to avoid | Metallic Epoxy Maintenance Tips

This section’s exactly what it says and is far more specific than clean often and clean well.

Metallic Epoxy is a wonder material. It resists chemical attacks, shrugs off high impacts, and is highly heat-resistant. Its stain-proofing and bacteria/mould resistance is legendary, and it’s entirely waterproof.

Yet, as much as we wish otherwise, nothing is perfect. The resilient top coating will eventually degrade if subjected to inordinately high amounts of damage. To prolong its life, here are a few things we strongly suggest you not do to your perfectly good Metallic Epoxy interiors.

Avoid Scrubbing With Abrasive Materials | Metallic Epoxy Maintenance Tips

Firstly, never ever use an abrasive scrub (like a Scotch-Brite pad) or related cleaning product on your Metallic Epoxy surfaces. The abrasive action will wear through the topcoat over time and expose the epoxy surface below, causing it to lose a vital layer of protection.

Avoid Using Heavy Industrial Products | Metallic Epoxy Maintenance Tips

Secondly, avoid using heavy industrial products on your Metallic Epoxy surfaces.

The occasional spill from paint thinner or turpentine is perfectly harmless if cleaned up in a timely manner. However frequent and long periods of exposure to such industrial solvents will eventually cause damage to the topcoat.

Highly concentrated household cleaners should not be allowed to remain on the surfaces as well. If complete disinfecting is required with bleach, use the least concentrated effective solution possible and clean it off promptly.

Avoid Over Exposing To Constant High Heat | Metallic Epoxy Maintenance Tips

Next, epoxy’s heat resistance is graded to 200°C. This means it can take boiling hot water, and then some, with minimal effect.

However, naked flames and hot pans from right off the burner may exceed this safe limit easily. Do not constantly overexpose your Metallic Epoxy surfaces to these conditions. As much as you can, use a cork pad or other protective material if you intend to place a hot pan or pot on the countertop.

Otherwise, you should ideally keep the flame-throwing to a minimum around the epoxy. Or anywhere else, for that matter.

Avoid Intentional or Unintentional Damages | Metallic Epoxy Maintenance Tips

Last on this list involves Metallic Epoxy’s impact absorption and scratch resistance. Its virtues in these two areas are far more pronounced than in most other materials.

However, its lack of invincibility should be reiterated. Repeated damage from sharp and heavy objects directly on the surface will wear the topcoat out faster and should be avoided.

Conclusion | Metallic Epoxy Maintenance Tips

All good things must come to an end — unless you’re a layer of Metallic Epoxy, that is.

Properly maintained, Metallic Epoxy Surfaces last at least 10-15 years before seeing a decline in the performance of the topcoat. However, completely renewing the life of your Metallic Epoxy is as simple as having an installer re-apply a new layer of topcoat.

While the topcoat installation comes at a cost, it’s a fraction of the cost of a brand new installation of any other surfacing material.

Introduction | How to Install Metallic Epoxy

Metallic Epoxy is a novel take on an already fascinating material. Much like a prehistoric mosquito trapped forever in amber. The material consists of metallic pigments suspended in a liquid epoxy compound.

When the compound cures and sets, the pigments are permanently trapped in place. An enterprising artist may thus create marvellous designs by manipulating the pigments before the epoxy fully cures. Forming patterns that scatter light in beautiful ways.

Steps Taken at Metallic Epoxy Singapore | How to Install Metallic Epoxy

Metallic Epoxy is most frequently used for Epoxy Floor Installations. Every step of the process is essential in achieving an aesthetically pleasing and fully protective finishing.

Step 1: Clean Room Environment | How to Install Metallic Epoxy

The first step involves cleaning the area thoroughly to minimise the presence of dust and debris. The creation of a “clean-room” environment is critical in the process of Metallic Epoxy applications.

Step 2: Sealant Application | How to Install Metallic Epoxy

A layer of sealant is then applied to every inch of the floor to seal off cracks and holes. This prevents air or water from entering beneath the finished surface.

Air can cause oxidisation, and moisture from the water will greatly increase the risk of having the Epoxy warp or pop!

This is only required for Floor Applications.

Step 3: Primer Application | How to Install Metallic Epoxy

Next, a healthy coat of primer is evenly applied over the sealant.

It is a milky suspension that, when applied, serves primarily as a bonding layer between the sealant and the epoxy in the next step.

This absorbs any remaining oil, moisture, or dirt and serves as a neutral base colour. It also acts like a blank canvas to fully showcase the colours of the final design.

Step 4: Epoxy Application and Design | How to Install Metallic Epoxy

The Metallic Epoxy resin can now be applied. A pre-calculated mixture of resin and pigments is poured and spread over the floor.

The artist or designer steps in at this point. He / She will employ the company’s proprietary methods to create the desired patterns within the Metallic Epoxy.

A fast and sure hand is necessary in this step. Reason lies behind the limited time before the mixture hardens and fixes the pigments in place.

Step 5: Top Coat Application | How to Install Metallic Epoxy

Lastly, one of the five types of topcoat is applied over the Metallic Epoxy.

Clients may choose between the mirror, gloss, gloss anti-slip, matte, or matte anti-slip finish. This is depended on their preferences and needs.

Once this final layer dries, the finished product is perfectly water-proof and damage resistant. Protecting the design and floor beneath it.
