actually black coloured tops will show dirt/dust/scratches more easily compared to light coloured tops.

but your case seem unique. do you mean the whitish patch actually embedded itself into the surface?

maybe the surface of your solid top is more porous that's why trapped dust/dirt from all the reno dust flying around, but then again....really strange to hear that u put things on top and the whitish patch appeared underneath..hehe

conpassvale,

i koe black solid top will show dirt/dust/scratches more easily but having a faded/whitish patch appearing on the spot where we've put things like tissue box or rice container is ridiculous lor :~

agree with compassvale that solid surface tops are not supposed to behave like this

maybe you want to ask you ID what brand was used and check the internet to see if it's a particular problem associated with this brand

in between the top and bottom cabinet can hang mah

that's where i plan to hang the system also

i also draw out the layout of the system liao

so so so adamant on getting it

but it's expensive so waiting for a big sale :notti:

went down to my new place (again)

saw the workers doing the final tiling works for the skirting

so happy :dancingqueen:

now just need to get the contractor do the plastering for the door frame areas can go onto the final stages of rectification

after that my renovation can start

yippee :dancingqueen::yamseng::D:sport-smiley-004:

i seriously tink there is some problem with my black solid top... will see how it goes aft the polishing next sat

think after the polishing you should try and put something on top overnight

if the whittish spots appear again get your ID to change the whole top

it's unacceptable loh

to be a little philosophical, things happen for a reason

maybe black isn't really good for you and hubby so this happend then you will change to another colour :)

actually when i was reading up on solid surface countertops this wasn't highlighted as a problem leh

if solid surface top behaves like this, how to make good countertops?

maybe it's the manufacturing defect that's causing this

think you can still move in end jun or early jul

now only may, got loads of time to rectify the problem

dun stress to much, if not on AD won't be pretty liao :D

maybe that's why you are having problems with the solid surface top

just complain to your ID lah, i'm sure he will change for you

think monday will get my bf to call the tile contractor to ask him fast fast settle the plastering of the door frame area

after that can do the rest of the rectifications liao

now heart itchy itchy thinking about my dream sink again

you think GSS hoe kee will reduce the price or not?

btw are you going to engage a mover?

if yes then get them to provide boxes

if not then bo bian got to go ask around for boxes :D
