If Essastone, their cleaning pdf is here: http://www.essastone.com.au/uploads/war ... rranty.PDF If not Essastone, I'm sure the manufacturer has a similar instruction sheet with advice on how best to clean it. Hope you can get it back to the sparkling joy it was when you first set eyes on it. Re: Sammymac's build! - We have keys!!! :-) 1242Jun 28, 2013 7:48 pm Hi lucinda, it's smartstone... I've tried what their website suggests, but no luck. I feel like I'm constantly cleaning it. It's been there since Saturday.. Well that's when I first noticed it. I just dusted the bench and saw it. It's not very noticeable during the day, but at night it stands out like a sore thumb Feel free to follow our build! viewtopic.php?f=31&t=59958 Re: Sammymac's build! - We have keys!!! :-) 1243Jun 28, 2013 7:49 pm 1rocky if you find a good product please let us know. i would also like to know how to clean glass splashback without leaving streaks stoners invisible glass cleaner, not cheap but it's what car detailers use Re: Sammymac's build! - We have keys!!! :-) 1245Jul 03, 2013 2:31 pm have you got it all organised yet? oh sorry about the bench hope they get back to you soon about tammy your welcome to follow our build https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=64842 Block cut - 15th February 2014 Re: Sammymac's build! - We have keys!!! :-) 1246Jul 03, 2013 3:36 pm Hey sammy, whens Sam booked in to do your concrete? love to see some good photos of the job he does.

Must be fun fun fun with all the new gadgets and furniture. Hopefully the benchtop sorts itself out for you. We are not impressed with our Brickwork and got brushed off by SS so I can feel your pain when you feel that you are not getting what you paid for Out of curiosity who did you use for Blinds, we are contemplating a DIY job as many do but open to professional install if we come across the right feedback and price competitiveness.
