Resealing
Traditional resealing covers the stone’s pores but deteriorates over time, requiring regular reapplication—often annually, depending on usage. Maintaining resealed surfaces demands the use of specific sealant-friendly cleaners, adding to the upkeep. Despite this, resealed surfaces still require diligence to maintain, as the stone remains vulnerable to etching and staining.Epoxy Coating
Epoxy creates a thick, durable coating that forms a new surface over your stone. While long-lasting, epoxy fails to conform to the stone's natural shape, often resulting in uneven edges or blobs that detract from its aesthetic appeal. This can give the surface a "cheap" appearance and diminish its value.Anti-Etch Sealant
Anti-Etch is a permanent sealant that prevents etching by forming a cured, solid layer over the stone. While effective, it has several drawbacks:Susceptible to scratches.
Very expensive.
Application requires heavy chemicals, which, if mishandled, can result in a cloudy or uneven finish.
Prone to yellowing over time, with removal requiring grinding, which risks damaging the stone.

Depending on usage, proper care, and UV exposure, the product can last between 5 to 10 years. Its hydrophobic properties may diminish over time due to wear and aging.

While the film is heat resistant, we recommend using a heat pad for hot items. Natural stone can still be prone to discoloration and cracking, so it's best to treat it like any other stone countertop.
