Statuario, with its exceptional beauty and luxurious texture, is widely used in modern homes and high-end architecture. However, as a natural stone, its maintenance and cleaning require certain techniques and precautions to ensure its long-lasting beauty and luster. This article will explain how to properly clean and maintain marble to help you preserve its original splendor.
First, its surface is very smooth, making it relatively easy to clean. However, it's important to avoid using harsh detergents. Acidic or abrasive cleaners can damage the stone's surface, causing scratches or discoloration. It's recommended to use a pH-neutral cleaner or a cleaning product specifically designed for marble to preserve its luster and texture.
When cleaning, gently wipe the surface of Statuario with a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid using hard brushes or steel wool, which can scratch the marble. For stubborn stains, use a mixture of warm water and a neutral detergent. If necessary, use a specialized stain remover, but be sure to choose one that's safe for marble.
To prevent stains from penetrating, avoid direct contact of acids (such as lemon juice and vinegar) and oils with marble. If spills occur, wipe them up immediately. Additionally, place a tray or protective mat on the countertop when using dishes or drinks to minimize scratches or stains.
Keeping the surface dry is also crucial. Prolonged exposure to water and moisture can cause water marks on the stone surface and affect its gloss. Therefore, wipe the surface dry with a clean, soft cloth after cleaning to avoid any residual moisture.
In addition to daily cleaning, regular polishing of Statuario marble can help restore its original luster. There are commercially available polishes specifically designed for marble that can be used regularly, but be sure to follow the product instructions.
