Some other quick pointers to
keep in mind:
-
Acidic liquids (wine,
orange juice, tomato paste, a whole lot of other foods and just
about all the cleaning products you buy straight off the grocery
store shelf) will eat into marble, travertine, limestone, onyx,
alabaster and some slates, leaving etch marks.
-
To minimize or
prevent this and other kinds of damage to your natural stone
surfaces download our free Stone and Tile Care Guide.
-
Clean up spills as
quickly as possible. Do not rub a spill, simply blot it up.
-
Use coasters under
glasses, particularly those containing alcohol or citrus juices.
-
Use place mats under
dishes, glasses and silverware, which could scratch the surface.
-
Play it safe. Use
trivets or mats under hot dishes. Do not set them directly on
your natural stone.
-
Avoid using cleaners
that do not specifically state they are safe for natural stone,
not only on the stone, but also on items nearby. For example,
overspray from cleaning mirrors, or drips or splashes from
toilet bowl cleaners can easily damage the stone beneath or
around them if they are not specifically stone safe.
