Sealing Arabian Black Granite

QUESTION:

I have a client wanting to install arabian black granite, will this need sealer?

ANSWER:

It likely will, but as with any stone the only sure way to determine if it will or won't need sealing is to water test it.

Get a sample, preferably from the exact slab they want to buy and perform the water test on it. That will give you a definitive answer.

There are some stone varieties/colors out there that never need sealing, but many are borderline and could go either way depending on the batch of slabs... it's a natural product after all, so to seal or not to seal is not... uh... written in stone.

Good Luck,
Ryan
