granite counter top people come in!
What do you all use to clean them?? I try to make as many of my cleaners as possible and even more so, try to avoid chemicals. I have been researching what to use and had decided on a mixture of rubbing alcohol, dish soap, and water. As I was getting ready to make it (as in had everything ready, just looking up amounts) I decided to read the comments on the site with the recipe. There was one comment from someone who said he or she worked a granite place and you should NOT use rubbing alcohol, but should use vinegar. I have read and heard from numerous sources not to use vinegar because it can scratch and etch the granite. I have a hard time believing what the person said, but now I am afraid to use the rubbing alcohol too.

Re: granite counter top people come in!
Thanks ladies! I think I am going to stick to the soapy dish cloth, and just try to dry it off each time (a pain, but hopefully not streaks). I may just buy the method granite cleaner.
Crystal- you aren't supposed to use vinegar because it's acidic, so it can etch and dull the granite (or any natural stone) as can any type of acidic cleaner. I'm seeing so many recommendations for rubbing alcohol though. But I believe that it could strip the sealer, that makes sense.
This is what we use as well. I really like the Lysol kitchen spray and it doesn't leave residue or anything (and we have dark black granite counter tops)
