We have a 2013 Keystone Montana 3800RE. Only had it since July 3. The countertop has scratches on it already, do not know what the substance is and since they are dark the scratches show. I know it is not Corian, as we had that in our other rig. No information came about it with the owner's packet (which is substandard in our opinion). Any suggestions how to get rid of the scratches or what to use to protect the surface.

It depends on what the countertop is - contact Keystone - but most solid surface type countertops respond well to micro abrasives & a random orbit sander and then a good coat of (approved)wax.

Same here, we contacted Keystone and they sent an email with the directions on how to take care of the countertops, I am not really loving this counter top ! Good luck with yours. Montana Owners group
has a lot of good information also!

Are you sure it's not Corian cause that is standard now on most Montana's. There are several sites showing how to remove those scratches. Your Montana should have a complete packet on sinks and counters. Corian is nice but scratches easy . Call your deler if you can't find info. I bought a kit from Amazon that works great!

Artemus, what is the name of the kit you bought? I'm so disappointed with my black Corian surfaces. I contacted Corian, and Mrs. Crabby told me use Soft Scrub or an equivalent. That didn't work at all.
