Normal use, hard water and even toothpaste can break down this gel coat, requiring the cultured stone to be resealed with a new gel coat.

Things You Will Need

  • Polishing compound for cultured marble such as Gel-Gloss
  • 2 clean, dry cloths
  1. Clean the counter well. Avoid using any abrasives, as this may scratch the cultured marble. A liquid cleaner is best.

  2. Use a dry cloth to rub the Gel-Gloss into the cultured marble and allow it to dry to a haze.

  3. Buff off the haze with a second, dry cloth until the cultured marble reaches a high shine. The cultured marble is now sealed, with a new gel coat to help protect it.
