Q Does granite stain?
If the granite countertop sealed properly, then there should be no problem with staining. However, it is a porous stone, so it is not recommended to leave water or oils on top of the countertop for a long time and it might absorb the moisture. So usually, once the moisture is removed, there should be no problem and evidence of moisture. Some stone is more porous than other, so it is recommended to use granite cleaner and conditioner after installation. For example, Stone Spirit Inc. sells 3 in 1 cleaner/sealer/conditioner.

Granite is a porous stone, and like any natural stone, it can absorb liquids, oils, etc. The first important step to do is to seal it. Stone Spirit provides 1 year and 15-year sealer.
