A:Answer Hi Dana- This is Sue at GE Appliances. We are excited to hear of your interest in our Slate finish! Slate is a highly engineered, low-gloss matte metallic paint finish that resists fingerprints and holds magnets. To clean, wipe with a soft clean cloth using a mild household detergent then dry with a clean soft cloth. You may also use Cerama Bryte Appliance Cleaner, part number WX10X392. Rich and elegant, the stone-inspired Slate finish blends impeccably with today's materials and colors.Slate was specifically created with today's open floor plans in mind. It goes with every texture and color, never clashing with the rest of your decor. A warm, matte texture matches every style. Stainless accents complement any hardware. On the sides, a specially created shade of gray goes with every color for easy coordination.
