Gil: No. It might leave a slight haze on the surface though so if you just wipe it off every now and then to prevent build-up, you'll be fine.

Mary: Most of them are very similar in effectiveness. Hard water deposits may get tough to remove even with the best cleaners (use of strong chemicals is NOT recommended), so it's best to do your cleaning often in order to prevent the water deposits from accumulating.

There are so many products that clean granite out on the market but what is the best to clean granite with?

MARY: You could, although it would have to be cleaned quite often because this rather uniform color will show dirt and water deposits a lot.

Would you put Black galaxy in a shower stall?

Amanda: Cross out AB from your list then. Black Galaxy will be a tad better fingerprint-wise, but still far from worry-free. I see the dark theme, but with a small kitchen that might not be the brightest idea (pun sort of intended). It would make it even smaller visually. Why not going for something a bit lighter with some red in it. Try Jacaranda Fantasy. I guarantee you won't see one fingerprint on that.

We have tan floor tile, medium brown cabinets, small kitchen w/recessed lights. Backsplash is 1x1 glass mosaic in blk/tan/brn w/red accent. Thinking either Ab Black, Black Galaxy, San Gabriel Blk or Juparana Star Gate. 2 kids & hate fingerprints!

Our floor plan is open. Pine pergo with a slight red cast in livingrm. Huge black, rust, kaki tiles in kit and dining. Cherry cabinets. We have approx 50sp ft of counter. Live on river with lots of light. Thinking of black galaxy for countertops. Input?

JMTHOMPSON: They all go well based on the contrast. It's more of personal preference.

WHICH OF: black galaxy,absolute black select or san gabriel back would go with cabinets of biscotti and taupe glaze finish?

Leslee: Yes it would. That's why you can get a black cast iron sink :)

Tammy: That's debatable. White will be more traditional. Black, more modern.

I am considering dark cherry cabinets with black gallaxy granite counter tops. Do you think this will work? I have read that stainless sinks scratch easily, will a white cast iron sink look strange?

I am using black galaxy in my bath. Should I use white drop in sinks or black?

Cate: Since the island is more of a focal point in the kitchen, I would agree that putting the light stone on a dark island will accentuate it even more.

Name: Cate

Date: 2008-02-28 11:40:18

I was thinking St. Cecilia on the island and Black Galaxy on the counters.

All Granite and Marble - Moderator

Date: 2008-02-21 11:13:21

Cate: These two colors could easily work together. The question is, where do you want to put them (island etc..).

All Granite and Marble - Moderator

Date: 2008-02-21 11:09:19

denise: It will definitely work. Lots and lots of contrast!

Name: Cate

Date: 2008-02-17 23:22:02

We have dark cherry cabinets and medium light cherry stained oak floors. The kitchen is "U" shaped with a 9' center island. Would you do one or two colors? What do you think of Black Galaxy and/or Santa Cecilia?

I aam buying maple spice cabinets and will do a copper tin backsplash. Will black galaxy work for me

I am trying to decide between Absolute Black and Black Galaxy around our fireplace in the formal living room. What would youo suggest?

Rosa: Both will be ok as they contrast the light cabinets. Be careful with the black though, as it requires a lot more maintenance (cleaning).

Name: Rosa

Date: 2007-08-17 16:16:06

I am buying Maple mocha glaze cabinets, what would look better, black galaxy or tan brown?
