Cleaning Granite Countertops
Cleaning granite countertops is as easy as cleaning any other countertop. Actually, it's even easier than other countertops, because all you need is hot water and a soft cloth to clean them. We prefer to use microfiber cloths for all our cleaning needs and they really work well.
If you live in area with high mineral content in your water, it might be best to dry the granite with a dry cloth after you've cleaned it, so the water doesn't dry on the surface.
This accomplishes two things; first if any dirt was still in the water, you just cleaned it off with your dry cloth and second you just dried off all the water, so no water spots will start to form.

Like I said before, cleaning granite countertops is a breeze and if you want to give it a more thorough cleaning, you can buy a stone cleaner from a tile shop. Make sure the stone cleaner is a neutral cleaner.
Neutral cleaners are pH neutral like water and not acidic like vinegar or akaline like ammonia.
Using an acidic or an akaline chemical too often can begin to dull the polished finish, which can be an added expense to polish.
