FAQs About Vicostone Quartz BQ8220 Carrara Polished
Is Vicostone quartz stain resistant?
Yes, Vicostone quartz is nonporous, which means it resists stains from coffee, wine, oils, and household cleaners. Its dense surface prevents absorption of liquids, making it an ideal choice for kitchens and vanities.
How does Vicostone BQ8220 compare to real Carrara marble?
While aesthetically similar, Vicostone BQ8220 is far more resistant to scratches, etching, and stains. It offers the beauty of Carrara without the delicacy, making it ideal for heavy-use areas.
Can I install Vicostone BQ8220 in outdoor kitchens?
Vicostone quartz is not UV-stable, so prolonged exposure to direct sunlight is not recommended. For outdoor kitchens or sunlit patio spaces, consider alternatives like sintered stone from our Sintered Stone Slabs Collection.
Do you offer fabrication or installation services?
Absolutely. Zicana Boutique offers Made-to-Measure Custom Countertops for precise fabrication and seamless installation. Our experienced artisans ensure your quartz is cut, finished, and integrated to exact standards.
