Quartz cleaner? LG Viatera

5 years ago

Hello all! Just got my quartz installed and the brand, LG Viatera, only has a few approved cleaners listed..most of which are out of stock due to covid. Can you tell me what you use on your quartz ? I really would love something that disinfects but is safe and preferably available right now.

    Have been using Method cleaner for years, it works great.

    A microfiber cloth, with a bit of Dawn is all any kitchen surface needs. Wipe dry for best results.

    -KR thank you ! Which method cleaner , is there more than one ? I haven’t used any of them..



    -M Miller. Thank you for replying. You do make some valid points, albeit with a slight air of condescension. While I do know that soap and water will work, my question was specifically about sanitizing cleaners. As some are approved for use on quartz, and some can cause issues, I want to know what sanitizing cleaners others have used that have not caused any issues. I assumed soap and water was fine already.



    -Celadon thanks, I am looking for something I don’t have to rinse off for quick uses.. but this may still be the best route to go.

    Vinegar and water for most things, an antibacterial cleaner (like Lysol kitchen spray) when I really need to be sure about germs (eg raw meat drippings), and Bartender's Friend if I need to spot-clean a stubborn stain (like turmeric).

    "Soap and water is best at cleaning and disinfecting. Idk why people do not understand this. They understand the handwashing guidelines for Covid prevention are to wash hands with soap and water."

    No, it's not.

    Soap and water is great for cleaning, but not for disinfecting. Use soap and water to clean hard surfaces, but to disinfect them, you need something more. We don't disinfect our hands, we clean them with soap and water - even before surgeries, surgeons don't disinfect their hands!

    Following your recommendation of dish soap and water, get it sudsy, then wipe and dry? That might clean them (and that's a good start before disinfecting), but there will still be microbes that can survive that. To disinfect you need either diluted bleach, or one of the chemical disinfectants sold commercially in stores.
