(EMAILWIRE.COM, February 11, 2013 ) Imperial MO -- Noblesville Artists look for countertops that are durable, aesthetically pleasing, easy to clean, stain resistant and ones that have a long life expectancy. Granite is Mother Nature’s own artwork and found to be a very inspiring addition to the art studio.

Granite is known as one of the hardest natural stones in the world. Granite countertops are not easily scratched or chipped and may be repaired and polished in the rare event that damage does occur.

Granite is prized as countertop material due to its high polishing potential and deep grain. The depth of the grain was created when several mineral types fused together eons ago under great pressure. As the years ticked by, these individual minerals solidified into a colorful, harden stone which, when polished, displays both the multi-colored minerals and the deep grains. This makes for a wide variety of the color selections in granite countertops as seen on the Surface Encounters (http://www.halfoffgranite.com/) website.

Artists are often faced with extensive clean-up after projects are completed. Granite countertops are easily just wiped clean and can be cleaned with a mild cleanser to remove the residue left behind by the artist’s work. For most projects, however, just a wet cloth will bring the luster back to the countertop and it will look as pristine as it did the day that it was installed.

Granite countertops are stain resistant and won’t be damaged from ink colorants, chemicals or extended exposure to water. Granite countertops have a non-penetrable grain that prevents dyes or colorants from bleeding into the surface and being trapped in the pores of the rock. This makes for an ideal surface on which to work, especially when using oil based or water based colors.

Pre-finished, commercially installed granite countertops like the ones featured at Surface Encounters offer a lifetime of use. Unlike other surfaces such as laminates, granite countertops will not scratch, tear or wear after long periods of use and will remain as fresh- looking as the day they were installed. Tile countertops may crack or may need to be re-grouted, but granite countertops are maintenance free and will last almost indefinitely.

Although granite countertops are often considered high-end in terms of price, one will quickly see a return on their investment with durability, ease of maintenance, and longevity. Visit http://www.granitecountertopsimperialmo.com/ to learn more.
