Marble
Maintenance and Cleaning
| Maintenance | Cleaning Method | Cleaning Frequency |
| If necessary, cleaning, repointing and surface repairs in accordance with BS 6270: Part 1or CP 67 Part 1: 1997 | Periodic cleaning:
Warm water* applied with a clean, lint free cloth, then wiped dry with a soft cloth is sufficient. If the marble has become soiled, a “soapless” cleaning solution is preferred; these include mild, phosphate-free cleaners, biodegradable liquid dish-soaps, general household neutral cleaners and soap powders. It has to be rinsed thoroughly. The use of proprietary stone cleaner is also recommended, with method of application in conjunction with manufacturer instruction.
As a rule, do not use any cleaning solution which contains any form of acids, phosphorus, chlorine or scouring powders on polished marble, since this will make marble looks dull or known as “orange peel” unless adhering to the cautions and/or formulas provided. Any type of abrasive product should be avoided, in order to prevent scratches and loss of shine |
