Just moisten the surface with a piece of damp kitchen paper, then pass over the scratch with a hot iron to repair the damage. Your worktop will look brand new again.

The surface of this material guarantees to withstand knocks, scratches and abrasions. It’s hygienic and easy to clean, suitable for contact with food, anti-mold, antistatic, waterproof, resistant to dry heat and rubbing, resistant to acid solvents and domestic reagents, with wonderfully intense and deep colors. The new Stosa worktops are available in a range of classic and trendy colors.
