How to remove stains and scratches from marble?
Marble is a beautiful natural material that adds value to any interior. But if you live in your house, it is inevitable that stains and scratches will appear on your marble over time. Fortunately, there are several ways to remove them.
Removing stains
To remove stains from marble, you can use a special cleaning product for marble, such as AKEMI® ANTI RUST MARBLE. This product is specially designed to remove superficial rust stains on natural stone and concrete that are sensitive to acids.
It is ideal for polished marble or limestone surfaces that are already laid or ready to be laid.
In addition to the RUST REMOVER MARBLE, you can also use AKEMI® STONE SOAP. This is a natural, nourishing mop soap for the daily maintenance of floors in: marble; bluestone; travertine; granite; terrazzo.
It is a mild cleaner that nourishes and protects the marble from dirt and stains.
To use AKEMI® STONE SOAP, dissolve 1 to 2 tablespoons (20 to 40 ml) in 5L of lukewarm to warm water. With this you can clean the floor without any after-treatment.
Both rough and polished stones become more beautiful and fuller in color for a warm, maintained appearance. With regular use, it even provides a dirt-repellent effect.
You can also opt for a home-garden-and-kitchen solution when you dissolve soda in water or with ammonia. Let it soak in and rinse it off with clean water. Don’t forget to dry the whole thing with a chamois or soft cloth afterwards.
Removing scratches
It is not advisable to remove scratches from natural stone yourself, whether it is marble, blue stone or another type. You have to sand away the stain with sandpaper and that can leave a spot that is a bit duller than the rest of the surface. Call in a professional to be sure of an even result.
