Safely and naturally clean your granite kitchen counter tops using this homemade essential oil granite cleaner!
Granite counter tops can’t be cleaned like regular counter tops because they can get damaged. Same goes for marble and stone counter tops. If you use normal cleaners on them, even your DIY all-purpose cleaner, the ingredients in them like citric acid or vinegar can cause etching or them. Normal cleaners strip the seal off the granite counter tops, making it lose its sparkly and shiny finish.

You can use regular dish soap and water but if you want a nice granite cleaning solution that will leave your counter tops clean, fresh, sparkly and smelling good, then use this homemade essential oil granite cleaner!
