Tips & Tricks how to keep your Marble clean and fresh
- Protect against stains – Marble is naturally porous and absorbent, so it is recommended to wipe off any leaks immediately, especially from acidic substances such as citrus juices or wine. Consider using coasters under glasses and plates to avoid direct contact with the surface of the stone.
- Regular cleaning – Gently clean marble surfaces using a soft, preferably microfiber cloth or sponge and a neutral cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or acidic, alcohol-containing detergents that can dull or corrode the stone.
