Certain substances should not be allowed to come into contact with the stone

Some substances should never be allowed to come into touch with your stone. Anything acidic or alkaline falls under this category. Vinegar, alcohol, and lemon juice are examples of this, but there are many more acidic and alkaline things that might harm your stone. You should also avoid contacting your stone with nail polish, hair color, or hair spray.

Use caution when cleaning

Brown or green scouring pads should never be used to clean. They contain abrasive grit that has the potential to scrape even the hardest stone. Similarly, do not clean your stone with bathroom cleansers, all-purpose cleaners, bleach, ammonia, dish soap, vinegar, tub cleaning, or tile cleaner. Call us at 855-205-0972 for professional assistance in cleaning your stone.

Keep an eye on heavier items

You should avoid dragging large goods on a stone floor. A damp bottle of perfume, aftershave, or other similar product should not be placed on a stone bathroom countertop. Cosmetics and fragrances should be kept in their original packaging. In fact, make sure there is no standing water surrounding your sink when you’re in the restroom. Standing water will not cause immediate damage to stone, but it will erode it over time. As a result, you should avoid having plants on your counters. This could allow the water to penetrate through the countertop and discolor it.
