    ReSISTANCe To STAINS AND CHeMICAlS

    Zodiaq is non-poros, so spills and stains ar not absorbd into t srfac, making it

    T natral qartz crystals sd in Zodiaq in combination wit stain rsistant

    instrctions.

    HoNeD/MATT SuRFACeS:

    All ond/matt srfacs rqir mor attntion. Stains, grasy or oily marks, can b
