Considering the fact that granite is almost impossible to scratch, the main issue when it comes to granite counter top care is cleaning. Do not leave any spills because they can easily get under the surface and leave a stain. Keep a mild soap around for spills, especially if you have small children who tend to spill things often. Use a mild cleanser or soap and warm water to clean the surface.
