Stabilize / fix quartz kitchen countertop.
My fiancé and I thought our quartz countertop was heatproof against anything and would sling almost everything from oven to counter without a trivet. This has been fine for so long except for last night when we put a cast iron casserole pot on the counter and after a few mins we heard a loud noise and saw we'd made a 2 - 3 inch long crack in the counter. I've ordered an epoxy quartz repair kit, but over night the crack has essentially disappeared again. I don't think resin is viscous enough to make it's way into the crack now, is there something else we could use or is the repair kit the way forward? We'd like to stabilize it so that it doesn't get worse. And obviously we'll be using a trivet more now. submitted by /u/Tookey_94 [link] [comments]
