Is Astral Lactea Obsidiana Durable?
Obsidiana countertops can be easily scratched if you cut directly on them with a stainless steel knife or drag a pan across them. Obsidiana countertops, on the other hand, are resistant to heat and moisture and can be easily cleaned with water and soap. Because obsidian countertops are acid-resistant, you don't have to worry about vinegar spills or using a harsh chemical-based cleaner to clean your black obsidiana countertop.Due to the lack of porosity in this material, obsidian countertops will never become stained
Obsidiana is a volcanic glass, so obsidian countertops are easily scratched and have a low resistance to high impacts.
Obsidiana is not the best material for kitchen countertops, but it can be used as a backsplash, where it is relatively safe due to obsidian's heat resistance and moisture resistance.
So, before you choose obsidian for your kitchen countertop, make sure it is in a low traffic area so it can last a long time. If you have a high traffic kitchen, consider using a more durable material like quartz or quartzite countertops .
Characteristics of Obsidiana Stone:
-
Obsidiana is a product made up of 93-95% pure quartz, which is one of the finest and most durable natural materials. It is hardened only by sapphire, topaz, and diamond.
-
It has achieved a unique and prestigious product as a result of its efforts in developing new products and strict quality control standards.
-
This product, which is made of natural quartz crystals, pigments, and resins, is the most beautiful and luxurious product for a variety of decorative applications in homes.
-
Obsidiana has an extraordinary hardness, resistance to abrasion (scratch) and impacts, and no porosity to prevent the spread of germs and bacteria, allowing you to maintain permanent brightness and depth. This is the ideal material for worktops, vanity tops, flooring, tiling, and high traffic surfaces due to its strength.
Is White Obsidiana Heat Resistant?
Although it is a heat resistant product, placing recently heated objects (pans, pots, etc) on it can cause irreversible damage. As a result, we recommend that you never place these objects directly on the worktop; instead, use mats and pads. Toasters, fryers, and embedded equipment such as hobs and dishwashers that generate heat must have enough space between them and the surface to allow high temperatures to escape. Always use common sense, and you will preserve the natural beauty of this material.
Natural Beauty Obsidiana Counter:
Because of its physical and chemical properties, as well as its lack of porosity, it is very simple to maintain; all it needs is a regular cleaning with a neutral pH product/detergent, rinsing with water, and drying with a cloth or towel paper. If you follow this advice, it will keep its natural brightness and appearance for many years.A small amount of neutral pH detergent should be diluted! In warm water, rub the stain in a circular motion with a cloth and immediately rinse it with water.
