Ans: Some Pros of Soapstone are:Soapstone is almost impervious to stains. This is in stark contrast to granite and marble, which are easily stained.Scratches and dents in the stone can be sanded out in the same way that Corian and other solid-surface materials can be restored. After sanding out scratches, re-oil the countertop with mineral oil.Soapstone has a classic antique appearance, particularly as the countertop ages.Unlike granite and marble, which must be sealed and resealed at least annually, there is no need for sealing.Unlike solid surface countertops, soapstone is resistant to burns and scorches.
