In theory, every <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/List_of_decorative_stones\"><strong>natural stone<\/strong><\/a> has pores. Specific stones, like Granite, have less porosity than others, like marble. Granite is mainly resistant to water and has a low absorption rate.

This liquid may seep into the Granite&#8217;s pores if not sealed. Under these circumstances, it will typically dry out again in 15 to 20 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>The liquid on the counter may soak and stain when oils or grease are frequently used. Even when this occurs, the stain is not always permanent. A <strong>professional granite stain removal paste<\/strong> that is applied topically and sucks out any moisture from the stone can usually be used to remove it.<\/p>\n<p>Now let&#8217;s say you properly seal your Granite every year. In that case, you won&#8217;t ever have to worry about water rings, transient dark patches, or stains, even if the likelihood of staining granite countertops is already extremely low.<\/p>\n<p><strong>See Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/primestonegranite.com\/exotic-granites\/\">Exotic Granites Slab \u2013 Choose The Best For Flooring And Countertops<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_some_of_the_substances_that_if_properly_cleaned_up_quickly_away_can_permanently_damage_your_lovely_granite_countertop\"><\/span><strong>What are some of the substances that, if properly cleaned up quickly away, can permanently damage your lovely granite countertop? <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Watch out for rings or a carton of leaky fresh blueberries if you leave your red wine on the counter.
