Q. Hi, there. I have Black Galaxy counter top in my kitchen (installed half a year ago) and I cannot get rid from white water marks/build up around the faucet (the place that is always wet). My counter top is sealed.

 

A. This is a common problem with hard water and there are several things you can try. First take some 0# steel wool and rub the area with the wool dry. If this does not work then you can try a little vinegar and water. Be very careful and try only a small spot first. If this doesn't work then you will need to call a professional restoration contractor.
