Home What really makes your granite really pop?

[Italiahaircolor]

I have a small condo kitchen and put in a full granite backsplash and obviously on my counter tops as well...and frankly, thats still a lot of granite to clean! I bought a bottle of solvent at Sur La Table (my fav, to die, kitchen store). However, I think it leaves my granite very slightly streaky and lookiing dull.

Does anyone have anything that works fantastic, leaving the granite looking really shinny?

Thanks

I only use water and dishsoap on my granite (I have a spray bottle for water and another for the water and soap mix). The installer that came out to do our granite installation said that anything else will likely strip the sealant on the granite and make it dull.
I try to clean my counters at least 4 days a week (I have black granite so it looks dirty/dusty quickly), and it looks like new after every cleaning... very shiny.
Our granite installer mentioned that they sell some sort of polisher/cleaner at home depot or other places that should be used once every 1 to 2 years to maintain the seal and finish (havent bought any of that yet... but need to soon).

My granite fabricators sell their own label cleaner/polisher that leaves our granite looking brand new. No streaking or haziness at all and very shiny. I love the stuff.
