- For routine cleaning, simply wipe down your Stratus Quartz countertop with a damp cloth or paper towel alongside a pH neutral cleaner for natural stone or a mild detergent, and then rinse off with clean water. Natural stone cleaners (often used for granite tops) are available at Lowes, Home Depot or local grocery stores. They are typically pH neutral and can safely be used to clean Stratus Quartz. Some examples include: Stone Care Granite and Quartz & Stone Daily Cleaner. It is recommended to use cleaners with a neutral pH (between 6 and 8), so double-check the cleaners pH before using. Whatever product youchoose to clean your Stratus Quartz top, please follow the manufacturers instructions, especially in regard to dosage & exposure, and always remove the product before it dries
