WHAT IS SENSA? THE SENSA TREATMENT Sensa is the natural granite surface from Cosentino, a high-quality surface with such reliable performance that it comes with a certified 15-year guarantee. We have added a revolutionary treatment to the power and personality of granite, so you can always keep your kitchen looking brand new in a convenient and efficient manner. Sensa is a protective treatment used to reduce the stainability of the material.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS CARE AND MAINTENANCE WHY DOES GRANITE HAVE TO BE SEALED? HOW SHOULD THE SURFACE BE MAINTAINED? PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE Granite is a natural stone that is porous because of the microporosity found in the structure of its surface. This micro-porosity, along with surface tension, allows liquids to be absorbed. This phenomenon, known as absorption by capillary action, results in staining of the stone. The surface does not need any maintenance.
FINISHING THE EDGES AFTER PRODUCTION Once the edges of the countertop have been created they must be protected in the same manner as the rest of the piece. PREPARING THE EDGES Before applying a new layer of sealer, you must clean the edges well to ensure there are no impurities between the sealer and the stone. We recommend using a damp cloth or paper towel with a few drops of liquid detergent.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING AND HANDLING THE PRODUCT IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENTAL SPILL HANDLING AND STORAGE Eliminate any possible ignition sources and ventilate the area. Avoid breathing the fumes.
