I think I found the answer elsewhere in the Net: Rodabanca in English may be: Skirting, Backsplash, countertop skirting, countertop skirting edge, countertop backsplash. See http://www.freepatentsonline.com/6135581.html, http://www.dallasgraniteinc.com/BackSplash.aspx, http://www.schluter.com/media/datasheets/schlueter_db_wall_us_0806.pdf "Backsplash" is used for taller protective cover of back countertop walls, frequently works of tiling art. "Skirting" seems to be more colloquial, at least internationally.

The antonym of durable is flimsy or ephemeral.
The best method for maintaining the shine and cleanliness of a Corian countertop using Corian countertop polish is to first clean the surface with a mild soap and water, then apply the polish in a circular motion using a soft cloth. Buff the surface until it shines, and repeat this process regularly to keep the countertop looking its best.

That is Corian, which is incidentally a registered trademark of a DuPont product.
Corian is the registered trademark of the DuPont company. It is a countertop made of acrylic polymer and alumina trihydrate. The pattern and color on the top of the countertop is continued throughout the thickness. This allows any scratches or stains to be removed with sandpaper. ~http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corian
A corian countertop is manufactured to look like stone, similar to granite. The cost is dependent on size and quality. Base quality is $40 to $50 per square feet, and $60 to $70 per square feet for high quality.
To refinish Corian countertops effectively, start by cleaning the surface thoroughly with a mild detergent and water. Sand the countertop with fine-grit sandpaper to remove any scratches or imperfections. Apply a new layer of Corian refinishing product according to the manufacturer's instructions, and allow it to dry completely before using the countertop again.
No, it's not recommended to use Armor-All on Corian countertops. Armor-All is designed for automotive surfaces and may leave a residue that can dull the finish of Corian. Instead, clean Corian surfaces with mild soap and water or a gentle cleaner specifically formulated for solid surface materials to maintain their appearance and integrity.
To buff out scratches on Corian countertops, start by sanding the scratched area with a fine grit sandpaper in a circular motion. Then, use a cleaner specifically designed for Corian surfaces to polish the area until the scratches are no longer visible. Finally, rinse with water and dry the countertop thoroughly.
Make sure all the sanding residue is removed. Use soap and water then rinse twice or three times, drying in between. Finally, use a countertop polish specifically meant for corian and apply a lot of it either by hand or with a clean towel wrapped around a sander set at low speed. Wipe off this first coat then spray down the counter with more polish and let soak in for at least 4 hours. Then wipe and buff to a shine.
A Corian worktop usually consists of a solid, smooth surface. Its material looks like a mix between plastic and ceramic and is very durable and easy to clean.
