Oregon Falls Quartzite is Best Installed When Sealed
Oregon Falls Quartzite is a light shade natural stone that looks extremely subtle yet exquisite at the same time. It features colours like grey, white and pink. The majority of the slab’s background is white in colour, which is surfaced by diagonal veins in various colours like grey, gold and pink. As the minerals are irregularly distributed throughout the surface, the slab displays small veiny patterns created by those colours besides the big veins.
Is Your Veiny Quartzite Cracked?
Quartzite is commonly found in shades of grey and white quartzite countertops, grey quartzite is most loved by many and some quartzite stones appear to have pinkish or reddish hues due to the presence of iron oxide. Veining and pattern on quartzite are irregular and inconsistent in visualisation. The different minerals distributed within the quartzite stone blocks form patterns that look like veins. Sometimes the veins are more prominent than others, which might lead viewers into thinking that they are cracked fissures. Some stones like Sea Pearl Quartzite show intense veining while Oregon Falls Quartzite is much more subtle. The natural quartzite worktops are also found in tones
of Beige, blue, brown, dark grey, golden, green, grey, and white.

Say No To Spills Above Your Light Grey Worktop
To prevent any moisture from condensing on the surface after the Oregon Falls Quartzite counters have been cleaned with a soap solution, dry the area thoroughly. Avoid using abrasives or cleansers with citrus content that can harm the countertop's work surface, such as vinegar and lemon. These cleansers' acidic qualities have the potential to degrade the sealer, resulting in a loss of gloss and stain susceptibility for your countertop.
Ensure To Seal Your Kitchen Worktops
Quartzite worktops are less porous in nature as compared to marble, but properly sealing them helps to avoid staining and bacterial and fungal contaminations. Quartzite is a mid-cost maintenance material for kitchen tops. They have different degrees of porosity from colour to colour. Sealing is recommended once a year for the Oregon Falls Quartzite slab as it is not so dense and has more chances of being affected by moisture. Though they are scratch-resistant, avoid using abrasive cleaners on the surface which eventually will wear out the polish.

Tips To Maintain Quartzite Countertops
The cleaning of quartzite needs a minimal maintenance routine when compared to the natural stones of other types. Though the maintenance practice followed for granite and quartzite are similar to each other. If a stain occurs on your Oregon Falls Quartzite countertop or any surface, make a paste of baking soda and water or use a commercial stain-removing poultice. Apply a thick layer of paste to the stain and cover the area with plastic wrap. Allow the paste to sit overnight. Wipe the paste away and rinse using a damp cloth. If any trace of the stain remains, repeat the application until the stain is gone.
