- Test method—16 hours of exposure per substance.
- For exposure to chemicals other than above, it is recommended to test on a sample piece of Pinnacle solid surface to confirm the suitability for the application.

Chemical & Stain Resistance

Pinnacle solid surface is an acrylic solid surface with a high level of alumina trihydrate content as the filler, an ingredient which provides superior resistance to stains and chemicals. However, exposure to harsh chemicals should be avoided. In case of surface contamination, quickly flush affected area with a domestic gritty cleaner and water. Sand if necessary, as a ruler of thumb, surface damage may vary with the chemical strength and exposed time.

Common domestic residues, such as the examples listed below, may be removed with water or domestic gritty cleaners.
