Our Granite & Stone Cleaner Isn’t Only for Countertops!

July 21, 2025

Your granite cleaner doesn’t have to live under the kitchen sink. BKF Granite & Stone Cleaner & Polish has become a household staple for good reason, and it’s time to discover its versatility beyond countertops.

This powerhouse product works on nearly all stone and quartz surfaces throughout your home: fireplace mantels, cutting boards, backsplashes, paving stones, outdoor kitchens, and more. Whether you’re dealing with food stains on a stone cutting board or soot marks on your mantel after a cozy winter fire, this cleaner handles it all.

For example, do you have a stone cutting board? I know it’s still in the kitchen, but let me ask you: what gets more food stains than a cutting board? Exactly. And how about a stone mantel? Have you ever gone overboard with your fire and ended with a smoke-stained mantel? If you have, we have the product for you.
