How to do daily cleaning and maintenance of marble and granite
1 marble is not resistant to acid and alkali, fruit juice, coffee, tea, cola and so on with a slight acidity of the liquid can corrode the stone surface, and thus found a sprinkle, should be the first time to wipe clean, and cast with clean water. Daily cleaning should try to use neutral detergent.2 marble stone is soft, hardness is low, do not wear, sand and metal hard objects can be scratched stone surface, cleaning and maintenance should be timely removal of hard stone surface.3 because of the marble material reasons, if the water to stay too long in the stone surface, stone will absorb some moisture, if not timely dry, stone will appear yellow, white Hua, mildew and other diseases, once stone disease, it will be difficult to control, especially in the light of Dali stone, cleaning and maintenance, as far as possible to reduce the amount of water and detergent, timely suction clean, also should keep dry stone.4 regularly do daily crystallization hardening (1-2 times / month).5 regular waterproof, oil maintenance (1-2 times / month).
The marble and granite are two kinds of natural stone material, marble main component is calcium carbonate, which is characterized by the material is soft, easy to wear, easy penetration; the main component of granite is silica, the hardness is higher, because of the different materials, both maintenance and cleaning wipe considerations are also inconsistent.
1 granite acid and alkali resistance is better than marble, so clean can use weak acid cleaning agent.2 granite hardness greater than marble, good wear resistance.3 granite material density, strong water absorption, easy water formation in stone seams. And it is not easy to dry, it is difficult to eradicate, so clean and maintenance, as far as possible less water, that is, the use of water should be quickly dry.4 granite strong oil absorption, as far as possible to prevent oil pollution.5 attention slip.6 daily crystal hardening (3-6 times / month).7 regular waterproof, oil maintenance (2-3 times / year).The daily cleaning and maintenance of marble and granite is one of the most common aspects of stone conservation. The above considerations can help you to achieve better results in stone conservation.
