To get stains out of an engineered stone kitchen, follow these steps:

1. Identify the type of stain: Oil-based stains (such as cooking oil or grease) need a different treatment than organic stains (such as juice or coffee) and rust stains.

2. Clean the surface with a mild detergent and water mixture.

3. Apply a mixture of baking soda and water to the stain and let it sit for a few minutes. Then, scrub the stain with a soft-bristled brush.

4. Rinse the surface with water and dry it completely.

5. If the stain is still visible, use a commercial cleaner specifically designed for engineered stone surfaces. Follow the manufacturers instructions carefully.

6. For difficult stains, use a poultice made of flour or hydrogen peroxide mixed with a chemical-absorbent powder. Apply it to the stain, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it sit for 24 hours. Then, remove the poultice and rinse the surface with water.

7. To prevent future stains, avoid placing hot pots or pans directly on the surface and clean up spills immediately.
