Once it stains you will have a hard time getting it out. For concrete the best thing is to just let it age and get a patina naturally, stains and all. Same thing with butcher block. Concrete can crack if it’s poured or cured incorrectly. A good pour will include fibers in the mix that help minimize cracking to hairlines that rae nothing to worry about. That’s why a skilled installer is so important for these tops.
