How to Fix Streaks on Your Granite Splashback

Granite splashbacks are stunning—but when they streak, it can ruin the look in seconds. Don’t worry! With your SHYN products and this simple method, you’ll restore your granite to its streak-free shine in no time.


Why Are There Streaks?

Streaks can appear for a few reasons:

  • Leftover residue from previous products

  • Watermarks or mineral build-up from drying water

  • Surface etching (less common, but can happen from strong chemicals)

Let’s rule each of these out using your SHYN kit.


Step-by-Step: How to Eliminate Streaks

Step 1: Test Patch with Water

Start with the simplest, safest method.

  1. Wet your SHYN Magic Eraser with plain water.

  2. Wring it out well so it’s damp, not dripping.

  3. Wipe a small test patch of your granite splashback.

This will help lift built-up residue or light marks.


Step 2: Remove the Residue

  1. Wipe over the same area using your damp SHYN Ultimate Microfibre Cloth.

  2. This cloth traps anything the Magic Eraser has loosened—no streaks left behind.


Step 3: One-Wipe Dry Finish

  1. Use your SHYN Drying Cloth to dry the area completely.

  2. No rubbing or buffing needed—this cloth absorbs all moisture and removes streaks in just one wipe.

That’s it! Your granite should now be clean, clear, and streak-free.


If You Still See Streaks:

That’s okay—some grime can be stubborn.

  1. Lightly spray a patch with SHYN Degreaser (diluted 50/50 with water).

  2. Use the Magic Eraser to gently lift any remaining grime or build-up.

  3. Wipe with your Ultimate Microfibre Cloth, and dry again with the Drying Cloth.


 Still not perfect?

If streaks remain after these steps, your granite may have etching or damage from previous harsh products. While this can’t be reversed with cleaning, our method will still keep it as clean and presentable as possible going forward.
