Marchelle Sallares Supporter. How do you get turmeric stains out of quartz countertops? The sharpie was more stubborn, but all the colours except green faded within 15 minutes. The green took half an hour with a makeup round soaked in bleach. Same routine of rinsing down with water a couple of times, and then weak vinegar to return the ph.

I'm sure bleach would degrade the surface over time, but we are not talking a weekly soaking! Just a spot stain. That's why I only give the advice that the manufacturers post in their use and care info which is readily available on their websites. Cambria won't even let you treat a stain with Soft Scrub--you have to call them if you get a stain. We installed a honed Caesarstone countertop in our kitchen about 9 yrs ago. I don't see the color on their website anymore but it mimics Jerusalem limestone.

I have been very disappointed with the product and even more disappointed with the lack of support and customer service at Caesarstone. I have hard water stains, ring marks and a dull, patchy look everywhere -- actually worse where I don't have things sitting i.

I am rather OCD and don't let my family put glasses, bowls or anything down that is damp. I wipe up coffee, wine and other spills immediately and yet there are marks all over the counter. Caesarstone wouldn't speak to me or email me back with any advice unless I give them all of the details of my purchase. Since it was 9 yrs ago, I don't have all of the details anymore.

I am not trying to sue them or pursue a warranty claim, just trying to clean my Caesarstone so it doesn't look so awful. None of these have worked. Does anyone have any other suggestions besides these products? For anyone who has had cracks, what have they done? I am doing major renovations on other parts of my house and don't really want or have the funds to redo my kitchen at the moment. I'd like have a fix such as polishing my counter and sealing even though you're not supposed to have to do this, would this help?

Any ideas, thoughts or recommendations would be welcome. I am not using Caesarstone for counters in my current renovation project because of my product and support issues and have recommended many friends not to buy.

ALL honed stone holds on to stains and oils. It's why they required that the waiver be signed way back when. I never signed a waiver although I do understand the risk with honed vs usual glossy surface. That being said there are other people on this forum that write they have honed too and yet don't have the problems I do. My interior designer says she has never seen Caesarstone look so bad even honed. Further, I take issue with the company's unwillingness to communicate with me about their product.

With so many other good choices available, I won't buy from them again. I'm chiming in here as it is the only forum I could find to warn people who are considering Caesarstone. The thing we were not told firmly enough is. We have done this mistakenly a few times and it resulted in a discolouring. Ours is medium grey and where the hot pots went there is a slight but definite lighter ring. It doesn't jump out at you, but it is there. And as far as I can tell it cannot be reversed. It may not be as serious an issue with lighter colours.

I guess there's a subconscious feeling that since it is stone, it can take extreme heat, like a stone trivet or piece of marble tile which we now keep available at all times to put hot pots on. But this is not the case. I wish we had been warned more firmly about this.

It was a stupid mistake - I know the Caesarstone literature "recommends" against it but really, it should be a loud, bold warning. I have granite in my kitchen and I would never put a hot pot directly off the stove onto it. Just the temperature change alone can cause a crack. So to me, the same thing would apply to quartz.

I've remade estone seams with excellent results, but that had nothing to do with a poultice. A poultice is spread all over the countertop and left to set. When it's removed, it should have sucked the stains from the top. It may take several applications. Our contractor talked us into using Caesarstone, White, on all of our countertops and floor.

This is THE worst product I have ever seen. The floor is gray. They said add bleach to the water, needs mopped once a week.

Try twice a day. This is designed for looks only and NOT for anyone who actually uses their kitchen. One night while cooking, a bowl that contained lemon juice managed to etch several round circles into the stone to the right of our stove.

The bowl was only on the counter while cooking and eating, and the entire kitchen was cleaned afterwards, but it was too late. Since we had only recently finished our renovation and it was a small slab, Caesarstone replaced it under warranty and this section of the countertop was replaced.

I used a tiny amount of bleach in a ramekin; then immediately poured it out in the sink and rinsed the ramekin. I then used some oxyclean mixed with water in the same ramekin. When cleaning the kitchen later I found several round bleach marks from the ramekin - I believe due to the number of marks that it was from the oxyclean as the ramekin wasn't moved at all when I was using the bleach.

These marks are on the main huge slab in our kitchen that includes a waterfall edge, so fixing this would require tearing everything out. I would never recommend this product to anyone. I wish we had just gone with marble because at least I would have known what I was getting into with maintenance and could have the marble rehoned if needed. The Caesarstone website basically suggests this stuff is indestructible and that the only things you need to worry about are substances like paint thinners.

This is NOT the case. This material is the furthest thing from "indestructible" and I can't figure out why they aren't more honest about what to expect and watch out for on the website.

I'm fine taking care of things but in both cases the effects were so dramatic and unexpected for what amounts to normal activity in a kitchen. After getting several round bleach marks on my countertops presumably from residue on a bowl that had a small amount of bleach in it and had been thoroughly rinsed inside and out before being placed on the counter , my husband came home from a business trip and wasn't too pleased with the bleached countertop.
