It prevents dirt and grime from getting in the cracks between the different surfaces. so if they are damaged, they can be repaired depending on the type of damage.Minor scratches can be buffed out using a special cleaning pad pretty easily. Very fine scratches can be rubbed away with a cleaner like Soft Scrub. More detailed instructions to removing scratches and cuts can be found on DuPont’s website. The main drawback to Corian countertops is that they are not heat resistant. Because they are made of plastic, they can scorch easily beyond repair. Over time, Corian countertops require more frequent cleaning to maintain their finish and color. Darker colors seem to need more attention than lighter colors. The appearance of the finish on the countertop will likely change, even with proper care. Refurbishing can be done by the owner.
