How to maintain white marble? marble
Do not rinse directly with water
White marble stone, like natural stone, is a porous material that can breathe, so it is easy to absorb moisture or penetrate and pollute through water dissolution. If the stone absorbs too much moisture and pollution, it will inevitably cause various stone lesions, such as: cracking, weathering, falling off, floating, yellowing, water spots, rust spots, white flowers, matte surfaces and other annoying problems. Therefore, white marble carving should avoid washing with water or washing the surface of Beijing white marble carving with a mop that is too wet.
Do not use non-neutral detergents indiscriminately
In order to achieve a quick cleaning effect, general cleaning contains acid and alkali. Therefore, if a cleaning agent with unknown ingredients is used for a long time, the surface luster of the stone will be lost, and the residue of non-neutral agents will be the main cause of stone lesions in the future.
Avoid waxing at will
There are many kinds of waxes on the market, including water-based waxes, fatty acid waxes, oily waxes, acrylic waxes, etc. These waxes basically contain acid and alkali substances. Not only will it clog the capillary pores of Beijing stone carving breathing, but it will also be stained with dirt to form wax scale, causing yellowing on the surface of Beijing white marble carving. If a place with high frequency of pedestrian and cargo circulation must be waxed, a professional maintenance company must be asked to guide the use and maintenance of wax.
Avoid covering carpets and sundries for a long time
In order to keep the white marble carving breathing smoothly, it is necessary to avoid covering carpets and sundries on the stone surface for a long time, otherwise the moisture under the stone cannot evaporate through the pores of the stone. The stone will cause annoying stone lesions due to excessive moisture and increased water content. If you must lay carpets and pile sundries, please don't forget to change them frequently and keep them clean and clean thoroughly.
All stones are afraid of acid and alkali. Acid often causes the oxidation of pyrite minerals in granite to produce yellowing phenomenon. Acid will decompose the calcium carbonate contained in marble, causing surface erosion. Alkali will also erode the grain boundaries of feldspar and quartz silicide crystals in granite, causing grain peeling. The same is true for white marble. Therefore, non-neutral items are factors that destroy the crystal surface of stone, so remember not to use non-neutral cleaners indiscriminately.
