Great question! Caesarstone is a durable quartz surface, but like all stone surfaces, it’s important to note that it’s porous unless sealed properly. Most Caesarstone benchtops come with a factory-applied sealer, which helps protect the surface from staining and damage. However, the condition of that sealer can vary depending on age, usage, and previous cleaning habits.
If you're considering using SHYN Degreaser or SHYNER (our polishing and finishing product) on Caesarstone, here’s what we recommend:
✅ Spot Test First
Before applying to the entire surface:
-
Dampen a cloth or sponge and apply a small amount of SHYN Degreaser to a hidden or inconspicuous patch.
-
Gently agitate the area using a Magic Eraser to lift any built-up grime or residue.
-
Wipe the surface clean with a clean damp microfibre cloth to remove all product.
-
Dry the area thoroughly using a SHYN Drying Cloth or microfibre.
If no damage, discoloration, or residue appears after the surface is dry, you can proceed with cleaning the rest of the benchtop.
⚠️ Important Notes
-
Only use SHYN Degreaser on Caesarstone if there is visible buildup on top of the sealed surface. It’s meant to help rejuvenate the finish, not penetrate into unsealed or raw stone.
-
If your Caesarstone surface has no sealer or the sealer has broken down, avoid using any heavy-duty product until resealed.
As always, if you're unsure about the condition of your Caesarstone or how it's been maintained, consult the supplier or test cautiously. SHYN is here to help make cleaning easy, safe, and effective.
