Repairing little scratch mark by water sanding when do cooking, there may be some slightest mistake, but it will make the  solid surface kitchen countertop  some unsightly scratches. When there is some slight scratches, you could use the sandpaper in mesh 600,1200,2400 to polish the scratch on the kitchen countertop according to the depth of the scratch. First, wet the low granularity sandpaper by pouring water on to it and then flat the wet sanding paper on theglass, please pay attention do not water the sanding paper too much. Second, sanding the solid surface kitchen countertops gently back and forth by flat grinding. After that, you could choose the higher mesh water sanding paper to sanding the kitchen countertop, then clean the solid surface kitchen countertop by the scouring pad again. At last, polishing the solid surface kitchen countertop by ointment for further polishing treatment. If the scratch on the solid surface kitchen countertop is for a very long time or very d

1.material for standalone bathtub : Basically, the raw manufacturing material determines the performance of stand alone bath, determining that kind of material it is very critical when choosing a stand alone bathtub, when choosing the surface of the stand alone bathtub by hand, which feeling is more exquisite is much better; to beat softly the stand alone bathtubs to check its thickness; if conditions permitted, it is best to test and distinguish the noise and heat insulation of the stand alone bathtub. At present, the mainly raw materials for bathtub is ceramics, cast iron, steel, acrylic solid surface, glass and so on, the performance of each kind of bathtub is different depending on materials, it is recommended to have a simple understanding of various material for bathtub before purchasing. 2.supporting components: The most basic requirements of the stand alone bathtub is that could support the back, the height of the support should be sufficient, which should also be able

Installation notes for freestanding bathtub : Actually, it should be placement of freestanding bathtubs, because  freestanding bathtub  does not need any earth installation. Though it only need to place simply on the position decided, there is also some stuff need to be paid attention to. Some matters need to pay attention to during the installation process of the freestanding bathtub: 1.First of all, need to consider the bathroom and the surrounding environment, according to the lighting, ventilation, floor and wall color, determine the position where will be best place for installing the freestanding bathtub. need to pay attention that freestanding bathtub is the visual center of the bathroom, should match with other facilities of the bathroom and the color of the bathroom decoration. Therefore, it is very important for choosing the right installation position of the freestanding bathtub. 2.Secondly, need to consider the bathtub water inlet hole and the water outlet hole for t

1. The better quality quartz stone is made by vacuum die casting, but the worse quality quartz stone is cast out by the production of heavy press plate. The density of the  quartz stone   is high, then the quartz stone will be more heavier in same size. Normally, the Quartz content of Quartz stone is from 80% to 94%, the higher content of quartz, the quality is better. 2. There are two normal kinds of thickness of quartz stone, 12mm and 15mm. Because hardness of quartz stone is higher than the solid surface sheet, so it is better to use the thickness 15mm, however, actually many manufacturers only produce 14mm or 13.5mm for the 15mm, but good manufacturers will not reduce only 1mm for save the cost of the quartz stone, so it is not recommended to choose the quartz stone which thickness doesn’t reach there 15mm. 3. Could test the hardness of the quartz stone by scratching with the key. the mainly composed of quartz stone is nature quartz(also named silicon), which hardness is only

1.After paving completely, should not walk or operation on the  quartz floor  before it completely solid (at least 24 hours). 2. Quartz stone can be used normally after paving is completed and remove the surface protective film. But it is better to do the mirror processing for the surface of quartz stone at the first time. 3.If there is other decorative work needed after the Quartz stone works are completed, should cover the quartz stone surface with plywood or carpet, in case that quartz stone floor will be damaged. And should invite proficient to maintain the quartz stone specially. 4.At the entrance of the quartz stone floor, should be laying carpet or mat dust, in case that sand and other debris to scratch or damage the quartz stone floor. If there is ink, coffee and tea, oil and other substances pollution which will be easy to make the quartz stone dye, should be cleaned in time, then it will not affect the appearance. 5.Do not use strong acid and strong alkaline cleaning a

Solid Surface sheet is with excellent wear resistance, acid & alkali resistance, high temperature resistance, impact resistance, compressive and flexural, anti-permeability. It is also well in processing of the turning parts,bonding, deformation, bonding.because the surface is not porous, non-penetration, so it is well in anti-pollution; also could be seamless bonding in arbitrary length, there will be no seam after adhesive and grinding of joining the several piece same material. To make  solid surface sheet  with perfect appearance, it is very important of after-curing. The after- curing, which means to put the solid surface sheet at a certain temperature for a few hours. Generally, polyester resin’s strength of first curing on the production line only reaches about 50% of its maximum intensity. It will take about several weeks or even months for completely cure, and the completely curing can make the solid surface sheet is with much better strength and water resistance. Meanwhi

Solid Surface Sheet is made from acrylic resin and ATH. It is with well toughness and hardness. It is with well corrosion resistance, UV-resistance, could also make various shapes under the condition of high temperature. Solid Surface Sheet’s aging process is very slow, could be long-term using. Solid Surface Sheet is non-toxic, no discoloration. In addition, the solid surface sheet is easily to be renovated, grinded and polished. But on the market, some  solid surface sheet   is made from calcium powder, to save the high cost from ATH. Because calcium carbonate powder is not stable enough, it will be easily to be damaged by encountering with hot stuff or acid. Normally, solid surface sheet’s resin content should reach 35%, as only the resin reaches a certain proportion, the solid surface sheet will be in good toughness. If using the calcium powder, solid surface sheet will become brittle and easy to crack and deform, and easy to yellow. "Real solid surface sheet could be used fo

Common of Solid Surface Sheet and Quartz Stone : One, beautiful rich color same as natural stone texture and surface gloss; Two, environmentally friendly, non-toxic, no radiation, could direct contact with food; Three, flame retardant, fire resistant; Difference of Solid Surface Sheet and Quartz Stone: First, different raw materials: Solid Surface Sheet is made from ATH, acrylic, high performance resin and natural pigment by vacuum casting; Quartz stone is composed of about 93% quartz crystal particles, the glue and resin, pigment, antibacterial agent, and then vacuum under high temperature and high pressure. Two, plasticity: The Solid Surface Sheet: almost no design constraints, creativity, unlimited performance. The Quartz Stone higher content of quartz crystal for the main structure, which is harder, density, not easy to do a special shape, plasticity is lower than that of Solid Surface Sheet. Three, stain resistance, scratch resistance Solid Surface Sheet: easy to be

The maintenance for the solid surface freestanding bathtub . Should check the material first and then clean by manual. the advantages of acrylic solid surface freestanding bathtub is that is light, no rust, insulation resistance, easy to be cleaned. It is very common currently on the market. Recommended to clean the acrylic solid surface freestanding bathtub once a week, cleaning with a sponge or cloth, do not use coarse cloth, scouring pad, but also need to avoid directly contacting with sunlight and high temperature cigarette. It is better to use a mild detergent or water glass to do cleaning, don't use abrasive cleaning agent. In addition, many chemicals will make the acrylic solid surface freestanding bathtub to lose luster, so don't use detergent with corrosive. 1 vinegar Want to remove incrustation scale of  solid surface freestanding bathtubs  and the faucet, could cover with a cloth dipped in vinegar on the stubborn dirt for a whole night. And at the next day, bakin

1. Change the bad habits on the solid surface sink or basin for smoothly taking. 2. If there is some cosmetic in the larger volume or its weight is too heavy needed to be place on the make-up plate above the solid surface sink or basin, please equipped the special lockers, to facilitate the daily collection, avoid placing the items on the make-up plate. 3. The usual cleaning: cleaning with the soft brush or sponge dipped in a neutral cleaning agent, but avoid hot water flushing, in order to avoid disruption of the solid surface sink or basin. If need to use the solid surface sink or basin to contain water, put cold water first, and then the hot water to avoid solid surface sink or basin to be scald. 4.Regular maintenance: if the below traps head can be disassembled, removing the accumulation of dirt, and keep drainage unobstructed. 5. Regular detection whether the  solid surface sink  or basin is dark cleft. Storage with full water of the solid surface sink or basin, pourin

According to the installation location, there is independent Solid Surface Basin and built-in Solid Surface Basin. 1. The total independent  Solid Surface basin , which will be completely on the table, also called Solid Surface Bowls, on the table Solid Surface Pots. The advantage of the total independent solid surface basin is that it is with casual style, visually reveal personality, easy to install, just only need to open a hole on the table and then it can be connected with the hole, and also there could enough place for store a lot of items. Also, the independent solid surface basin is freely to be replaced if it has been damaged; but the independent solid surface basin is a little higher for children and the sewage may will splash on the table and on the ground, can't be received into the solid surface basin, is not easy to be maintained. Independent solid surface basin is for large space, need fixed bracket. 2. Built-in Solid Surface basin: flanging solid surface b

1. Preparing the hard wax (candles), putting the hard wax on the running wool ball of polishing and doing friction, and then moving back and forth the wool ball coated with polishing wax on the quartz stone countertop , but the corners of the place is not easy to processing in the use of polishing wax. 2. When use the box waxes and liquid waxes: first brushing the wax 8# on the quartz stone countertop with brush evenly, after polishing by the polishing machine and wiping the quartz stone countertop clean by a clean cloth, then using cotton dipped 3# polishing oil to wipe the table, to make sure the whole quartz countertop polished by wax evenly and polishing with a wool ball and wiping the corner and edge of the quartz countertop with cotton cloth, to make the quartz stone countertop clean and bright. When polishing the quartz countertop with a polishing machine, should pay attention to the strength of uniform and polishing speed, to make the quartz countertop is smooth and the to

There is acrylic solid surface and acrylic modified solid surface sheet of our NEQ solid surface sheet.as you know, solid surface sheet is popularly applied for the countertop as it is various color and luxury appearance, but do you know how we produce the beautiful materials? The difference of acrylic solid surface sheet and  acrylic modified solid surface sheet   is the resin. The resin for acrylic solid surface sheet pure acrylic resin, but the resin for the acrylic modified one is the unpolyster resin and MMA. When we produce solid surface sheet, first, we will prepare the resin, ATH, chips, pigment, auxiliary agent such as antifoaming agents, ultraviolet absorbent and so on, which will make the solid surface material good performance. All the raw material should be at regular content rate. Second, all the raw material will be putted into a stirred tank and will be mixed completely. Then the mixed raw material will be auto casted to the production lines. There will be protect fi

The bathroom is usually very wet. Long time use of the solid surface, there will be inevitably stains, so please remember to clean the solid surface basin often. 1.Keep the   solid surface basin  bright and clean. Cleaning with the soft brush or sponge dipping with neutral cleaning. If the solid surface basin scaling, could be cleaned by the washing powder, toothpaste, toilet detergent or concentration of 5% of weak acid. Can not use wire brushes, or hard brush, acid and alkali chemical reagent or solvent to wipe or scrub, because it will make the surface of the solid surface basin fine scratches, so that it becomes rough and prone fouling. 2.Avoid impacted by the hard objects or heavy objects. 3.The built-in solid surface basin, need to pay particular attention to the dead part of junction of the solid surface countertop and the solid surface basin. 4.Do not place handrails or heavy items on the solid surface basin, or even sitting on solid surface basin to make the solid

1.Cleaning immediately after using and dry the  solid surface kitchen sink , try not to let water to stay in the solid surface kitchen sink, because the high mineral composition of water will make the tunica albuginea. 2.If there is mineral precipitation occurs at the bottom of the solid surface kitchen sink , could be removed by the diluted vinegar, and then rinse with water. 3.Can't let the hard objects or rusty items in the solid surface kitchen sink for a long time. 4.Can not put the rubber pad or wet sponge or cleaning pad in the solid surface kitchen sink for a whole night. 5.Pay attention that household products contain fluoride, bleaching agents, food, and cleaning agent containing silver or cleaning agent containing sulfur or hydrogen acid, will be potentially harmful to the solid surface kitchen sink. 6.Pay attention that bleach or chemical cleaning agents in the cabinet will release gas to corrosion the solid surface kitchen sink . 7.If the photographic c

How to make the using of   solid surface basin  more comfortable, no stand pain or water often splash of the solid surface basin. You should pay more attention to the following three points. The depth and intensity should be proportional. Normally, the depth of the solid surface basin should be in proportional to the water flowing strength of the faucet about the solid surface basin , which means that deep solid surface basin could be installed the strong flowing faucet. should not install the strong flowing faucet to the shallow solid surface basin, it will make the water splash out of the solid surface basin. There should be enough radian at the bottom of the solid surface basin, not too smooth, otherwise the water will accumulate in the solid surface basin. Should be attention that no matter of the solid surface stand-alone basin(pedestal solid surface basin)or countertop solid surface basin, the surface of the solid surface basin should be 80-85 cm higher than the ground. If t

Quartz stone has a comprehensive advantage of other materials, but during the using quartz stone will also be damaged, then how to prolong the service life of quartz stone? 1.a sharp weapon may damage the surface of the quartz stone or the quartz stone itself. Though Quartz is with high hardness in the composite materials, has a very high impact scratch ability, as long as it will not be damaged by a sharp weapon, usually quartz stone will not be worn. If there is stubborn stain on the   quartz stone countertop   and is particularly difficult to be cleared, can try to use a gently scraping tool to remove it, meanwhile avoiding to use high hardness tool to scratch the quartz stone countertop. 2.the high temperature will damage to the quartz stone countertop. Although the quartz stone is excellent heat resistance, generally will not be damaged by high temperature, as any materials is thermal expansion and contraction. High temperature may change the internal structure of the materi

1.The solid surface kitchen sink should be installed last Solid surface kitchen sink should be installed last of kitchen renovation. As the installation of  solid surface kitchen sink   is not big project, could prepare the installation stuff in advance, and wait for the professional technician to install. 2. Water pipes should be discharged before the installation Before installing, should discharge the water in the water pipes, if there is water in the water pipes, it will make solid surface kitchen sink to leakage or rust in the future. 3.Installation of the faucet must be firm When installing the solid surface kitchen sink , should pay attention that the convergence is firm, but also pay attention to that the position of hot and cold water pipes, do not make mistake. If the installation of the faucet is not firm, it will make side gap of the solid surface kitchen sink, and there will be leakage phenomenon later. 4. Should be cleaned completely after the installation As the i

Sometimes customers ask the question as’ Is there any advantage of the resin content at certain rate’. As we know, the resin is major content for making solid surface sheet . Meanwhile, the resin price is high, so to save the raw material cost of making the solid surface sheet, some factory will reduce the content rate of the resin. So, sometimes, when I introduce our solid surface sheet to the customers, will mention that our solid surface sheet is better quality as the resin content is at certain rate. Then customers will ask me back’ is there any advantage that resin content is at certain rate’? then I will explain to our customers as following: 1.Our production line is auto-casting production lines, which will request the resin content of our raw material should be at certain rate, which rate will be higher than the manual production lines, and the certain rate content of resin will make sure that the mixed raw material could be towards to the auto-casting production line; 2.A

Have been in the   Solid Surface Sheet   for several years. There are always many customers asking why your Solid Surface Sheet is more expensive than many factories or manufacturers. Today, here, we will talk a little about the question. 1.Our production line is auto-casting production lines. As you know, the auto-casting production lines requests the resin content rate of the raw material is higher than that one for the manual production line. Otherwise, the resin content rate is lower, the raw material will not easier to towards to the production line. As the resin cost is the major cost part of the solid surface sheet. This is one reason why our solid surface sheet price is higher than many other factories and manufacturers. 2.Our ATH is real ATH, not the calcium powder. The mineral filler of our solid surface sheet is real ATH. But some factories, in case of save cost, they will use calcium powder for mineral filler to be instead of ATH, as ATH price is higher than calcium po

Here we will talk a little about issue of waxing the   quartz stone  today. As we know, the appearance of quartz stone itself is very bright and glossy, but the waxed quartz stone will be brighter and glossier. Then is it right to wax quartz stone frequently or is it really good to wax the quartz stone frequently? In fact, waxing is only to make the quartz stone’s appearance more beautiful, brighter and glossier, but if waxing frequently, will make the quartz stone devaluating rapidly and damaging the quartz stone slowing, as there will be air bubbles, stone disease and aging of the quartz stone. Waxing is a way to protect the quartz stone then why it is not good to wax the quartz stone often? In fact, the protective effect of waxing to quartz stone is micro, as the poor weather resistance, antifouling effect is also not good, easy to adhesive dust. Waxing also will damage the quartz stone, because it will be a kind of airtight to seal the quartz stone, then the internal moistur

1.Real measurements, drawing and recording the size → confirming color with the customers, edge type→drawing→cutting with marble machines→grinding edge with special milling machine→drying and cleaning the edge→painting the Quartz stone adhesive→fixed with special clamping fixture→cleaning the spare adhesive and water sanding→polishing→inspection the size. 2. Edge grinding and chamfering with hard diamond chip mill, the chip mill mesh is 50#, 150#, 300#, and milling from #50 to #300; then polishing, first to use 500#chip mill, following with 1000#, 2000#, 3000# to polish. Attention the diamond sawing knife should be hard. Sawing knife size is 3 inch or 4 inch, could be used according to the requirements. 3. When do connection, should be 45 degrees oblique cutting. Cutting knife must be diamond saw blade in high hardness, volume cut sales, and cutting under the cool water situation, and cutting speed is above 6000 rpm. The saw blade is lack of diamond content will make the quartz st

Actually,  Solid Surface Sheet  made by auto casting production line will be better than that made by manual(mould) production line. Why does this happen? 1.the resin content rate is higher of solid surface sheet made by auto-casting production line than that made by manual(mould)production line. Then the performance of the solid surface sheet made by auto-casting production line will be better. As the higher resin content rate will promise the solid surface sheet is more anti-bacterial, scratch resistance, heat resistance, non-yellowing, chemical resistance, sauce resistance, stain resistance, easy to fabrication, easy to maintenance; 2.solid surface sheet made by auto-casting production line will make sure each sheet from same batch be in same color, no difference of color from slab to slab. As the solid surface sheet made by the auto casting production line, the casting machine will continuously cast the completely mixed material to the production line. Then all the material

Maybe you will be very curious when read this title ‘why need to add auxiliary agent for making solid surface sheet ’ and will ask what kind of auxiliary agent you add when make solid surface sheet. Ok, here, we will talk a little about this question. When we produce solid surface sheet, no matter the acrylic solid surface sheet or the acrylic modified solid surface sheet , we will add some kinds of auxiliary agent to the raw material for preparing. There will be antifoaming agents, ultraviolet absorbent and so on. All these kinds of auxiliary agent will help to improve the solid surface sheet’s performance and prolong the solid surface sheet’s service life. Antifoaming agents will help to reduce the air bubble when mix the raw material and during the solid surface curing on the production line. As if there is air bubble in the mixed raw material or in the curing process, there will be many tiny or small pinprick blowhole on the surface of solid surface sheet. Then will influence the

As Solid Surface Sheet have been popularly applied for almost 20years in the market. However, under the new request of the countertop material, the Quartz Stone is more and more popular, then why this happen? 1). Scratch resistance: Quartz Stone made by vacuum Vibrating compression, its hardness reaches 6~7.5 Mohs. 2). high temperature resistance, burning resistance: The raw material for making Quartz Stone is with high melting point (the high melting point is about 1300 degrees), and after the high pressure vacuum pressing, so Quartz Stone is with high temperature resistance. 3). the real stone feeling: Quartz Stone contains 93% the quartz crystal, so the feeling of Quartz Stone is very similar to the natural stone. 4). Stain resistant, non-penetration; The surface of Quartz Stone is very compact, it is dense and nonporous, and its bibulous rate is almost zero; oil, butter, coffee, tea, fruit juice, such as acid and alkali substances could not penetrate, so it is extremely

As we know, Quartz Stone is high hardness, luxury color and appearance, which is a new kind of material using for floor tile. But many people may don’t have idea what should pay attention if use the Quartz Stone for floor tile. Today, here, we will talk some about this topic. As Quartz Stone is with well abrasion resistance, beautiful appearance which looks like the natural stone, Quartz stone is very popularly applied for the countertops. As the production technology developing, Quartz Stone is used for the floor tile slowly and slowly. Then what should we pay attention to the Quartz Stone which used for floor tile? 1.the thickness of the Quartz Stone should not be so thick, normally 10mm is best choice, otherwise, the Quartz Stone floor tile which deform in the future if the thickness is too thick; 2.there is no appearance that one head is little wider than the other head. Otherwise, it will be hard when fix the Quartz Stone floor tile. To make sure the two sides head almos

Right now, in domestic Quartz Stone manufacturers, they can only produce the small quartz stone slabs. As we know, the size of Big Quartz Stone slab is normally 3000*1400mm, 3050*1500mm, 3200*1600mm, and the size of small Quartz Stone is 2440*760*, which made by the production line directly, excluded the ones cut to the requested size. The professional customers will be prefer to the big slabs to the small ones, then what is the difference of the big slab to the small ones. As we know, the big  quartz stone slabs  is compressed by the big vibrating vacuum machine, small one is made by the small machines. Of course, the pressure of the big vibrating vacuum machine is higher than that small ones. Then the quartz stone slabs made by the big vibrating vacuum compressive machine is with better compactness than the one made by the small machines. The product with better compactness will be much more stain resistance, anti-bacterial, sauce resistance, non-penetration, acid&alkali resist

The other day, discussed with our colleague about the thickness of Quartz Stone for countertops. What thickness isbetter for countertops? As we know, there are several kinds of thickness of quartz stone,12mm,15mm,18mm,20mm,30mm, but which is better? In domestic area, many Property developers are prefer to use the 12mm Quartz Stone for countertop to save the cost. However, actually, 12mm Quartz Stone slab is easy to break as Quartz Stone is brittleness itself, and 12mm Quartz Stone will can bear lower impact. Then which thickness of   Quartz Stone   is better for countertops,15mm,18mm,20mm or 30mm? as we discussed, and find out, 18mm or 20mm may will be better for the quartz stone to be used for the countertops. As 18mm and 20mm ones is thicker than the 12mm and 15mm ones, so 18mm and 20mm quartz stone could bear more impact, at the meanwhile, 18mm and 20mm is little thinner than the 30mm Quartz Stone, this will make the 18mm or 20mm Quartz Stone to be much lighter than the 30m

It is better to follow certain procedures during the operation of the quartz stone cutting machine. 1. During the fabrication, it is better to inspect and supervise the cutting conditions, and deal with or solve it immediately if there is any problem. 2. When programming, should be according to the real situation to determine the correct fabrication technology and fabrication route, to avoid the fabrication position is insufficient or take edge strength is not enough and the work piece of quartz stone scrapped in advance. 3. Checking whether the jet selection is reasonable, with the high pressure jet flow when rough machining, with low pressure jet flow when finish machine. 4. Moving workbench or spindle should be according to the distance with the work piece of quartz stone http://www.solidsurface-countertops.com/products/quartz-stone-oq1017.html . Taking the correct moving speed and take strict precautions against moving too quickly to avoid the collision occurred. 5.
