Hi,

Can you recommend a good product to remove mineral deposits from our granite countertop?

Is it safe to use CLR or Lime-Away? It's not immediately clear from the information on the bottle whether this would damage the stone.

Thanks,
Dave

My fabricator told me that if my Granite Counter gets easily stained by water, it is an indication of weakening sealer. I would recommend you ask your fabricator to check it out and seal it if necessary. For an alternative, here's what I do with limescale stains: I place a paper towel with vinegar on the limescale and let it set for 15 minutes. Then using a single-bladed razor, gently scrape the lime deposits and scrub it with a fine steel wool. Finally, I mix two parts baking soda to one part water to form into paste. Rub the mixture on the lime deposits then rinse thouroughly with water. But I still suggest that you hire a trained professional or call your fabricator.
