Tenax Carekit Natural Effect

Tenax Carekit Natural Effect is a complete three-step maintenance kit designed for cleaning, deep cleaning and protecting natural stone, quartzite, marble and composite stone surfaces. The compact set provides everything needed for regular countertop care, stubborn stain removal and renewal of the surface’s protective treatment.

The kit contains Briotop for daily cleaning, Booster Alk Easy for intensive degreasing and Skudo Shield for natural-effect protection. Each product is supplied in a practical 150 ml container, together with an application and maintenance cloth.

Briotop is a ready-to-use, neutral and water-based cleaner for daily surface care. It removes fingerprints, light dirt, streaks and superficial stains, dries quickly and leaves no visible residue. The product is suitable for natural stone, quartz, ceramic, porcelain, glass and mirrors and does not normally require rinsing.

Booster Alk Easy is a water-based alkaline cleaner for removing stubborn organic and inorganic dirt. It effectively tackles grease, oil, wax residue, wine, coffee, soft drinks, food stains, fruit stains and fingerprints while respecting joints and stainless-steel details.

Skudo Shield is a water-based protective treatment that provides water- and oil-repellent protection while preserving the material’s natural appearance. It penetrates the microporosity of the surface without forming a visible film, allows the material to breathe and makes subsequent cleaning easier.
