How to repair a Silestone worktop can become our worst nightmare. The moment our worktop suffers a knock or a crack, we all have a big problem and worry. Because we are aware of how expensive it can be to buy a new worktop. That is why at MASER we are going to bring you different solutions.

Although we must bear in mind that everything that has been broken once, cannot be repaired as it was before. We must bear in mind that with the different products that we are going to develop in this post we will be able to disguise these problems very well. Moreover, depending on the size of our gap or scratch, it may even be imperceptible to the human eye.

WHICH GLUE IS SUITABLE FOR REPAIRING SILESTONE?

Bearing in mind that when it comes to a worktop, it can be knocked anywhere. It would not be the first time that a corner or another part of the worktop breaks. That is why at MASER we recommend the use of fillers to solve these problems. However, we must keep in mind that a putty is ultimately a glue, and it may not be so “invisible” that the breakage is “invisible”. But by using the tips below, you will be able to repair your Silestone worktop without having to change the surface.

The fillers are from the Spanish brand BelCare, which is known for its wide range of chemical solutions for all types of surfaces. In this case, it offers three types of fillers, each in a different colour. The colours available are black, white and beige. Although we must not forget that with different dyes we can achieve more colours.

The advantages of these fillers are that they have a very smooth texture, which makes them easy to spread. Also, it does not lose any verticality after it is mixed with the catalyst. With these fillers you will achieve an excellent polish. In addition, they have a high chemical resistance, due to their low styrene and volatile organic compound content.

Once the most suitable putty has been applied, we must polish the area where it has been applied, to achieve a perfect and smooth finish.

In order to be able to be sure that we are taking good care of our worktops, we must know that they must be cared for with the right products. How to repair a Silestone worktop and how to look after it? The BelCare brand has thought of everything for the care of our Silestone worktops.
