Natural stone is a kind of high-grade decorative material with natural beauty and unique texture. Its surface looks fine and hard. However, due to its nature and diversity of mineral structure, as well as many defects and problems of stone itself, natural stone is very delicate. Natural stone not only needs to be carefully installed and laid, but also carefully protected and maintained in daily use.

Owing to the special environmental conditions of bathroom and bathroom, its water and gas are much, humid, mold and dirt are much, and it often contacts with daily chemicals such as detergent, so bathroom stones are very vulnerable to pollution. Once they are not maintained properly, the surface of stones will be corroded, become dull and even stained.

Therefore, in daily life, we should pay attention not to use shampoos containing dyes, soap and shampoo containing artificial pigments, and detergents without acid or alkaline. We should use neutral detergents to clean the surface, make the stone surface dry as far as possible, and wipe immediately when contaminants are poured on the stone surface. Clean, and so on.

Maintenance Points of Bathroom Stone

1. Confirmation of Softness and Hardness of Water Quality

Use soft water as much as possible in daily life and stone maintenance. Because hard water leaves sediments on the stone surface, these sediments darken the surface and react chemically with the stone surface. Because the removal of these sediments requires the use of chemical products. While removing the stains, chemicals also damage the stone.

2. Use of permeable stone protective agents to protect stone materials

In order to reduce the water absorption of stone and reduce the degree of bonding between sediment and stone, the use of permeable stone protective agent is the best way. Before installing stones, the following two protections should be taken: first, internal protection of stones, even with permeable silicone solvents, to minimize water absorption; second, surface protection of stones, even with fluorine-containing polymers with waterproof and oil-proof properties, to reduce mineral deposits. Damage to stone caused by acid or alkaline stains such as soap water.

3. Clean the stone surface in time after each use of the bathroom

At the same time, when cleaning, we should wash according to the specific situation to carry out targeted cleaning, that is, according to the variety of stone, the use of the environment, the main sources of pollution to select the appropriate cleaning agent and cleaning methods. If we dont know the specific situation and blindly choose cleaning agent, it will cause different consequences such as stone damage, deterioration, yellowing, blackening and so on.

4. Regular polishing of marble surface

After a period of use, if the local color of marble surface darkens, even serious damage, surface gloss disappears. This can actually be done with liquid polishing mixtures (polishing powder and polishing fluid) for self-cleaning (DIY) polishing. Or choose a professional marble maintenance company to help maintain polishing. It is better to use it after a period of time, usually once a year, do not wait until the stone is seriously damaged before polishing maintenance.
