I have to feel around with my fingertips whenever i clean.
Is black pearl granite hard to keep clean.
You can effectively clean black granite countertops simply with water and mild soap.
I have small kids too.
I have black granite floors and black laminate countertops.
The problem is the color not the material.
It s hard to seal it wrong but sealing needs to be done every year.
When i feel ridges i know there s dirt.
I was nervous that you d see droplets of water and all the crumbs.
The only color they had was black do you find it hard to keep clean.
Although it s overwhelmingly black and dark you can see lots of other flecks of colour in this beautiful mottled stone such as gold silver green and grey.
Any feedback on that would be appreciated.
Both are very difficult to keep clean because the dirt is almost impossible to see.
I was granite shopping the other day and had never heard of leathered granite and fell in love.
You probably needed to seal them.
Absolute black granite is jet black and consistent with its color and texture while black pearl granite has dark grey in the color as well as flecks of silver mica.
Honed and leathered are very similar so you won t find much of a difference there.
I d say honed leathered granite is actually easier to keep smudge free.
Each variety can add an interesting dynamic to a kitchen or bathroom design.
One thing we noticed with our black granite is any cup that forms a ring on it from condensation and say is left out overnight from a party will leave noticeable hard water rings on your nice.
