Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them
- Using vinegar, lemon, or acidic products
Though often recommended as “natural cleaners,” acids break down the calcium in marble, causing white stains, loss of shine, and surface erosion.
✅ Pro Tip: Use pH-neutral cleaners specifically formulated for natural stone. - Applying bleach, chlorine, or ammonia
These harsh chemicals degrade the surface, open the pores, and accelerate long-term damage.
✅ Recommendation: Always consult professionals before applying any chemical. One wrong product can ruin your marble instantly. - Using abrasive sponges or hard brushes
Marble is a soft stone. Rubbing it with abrasive materials creates micro-scratches that trap dirt and bacteria.
✅ Suggestion: Use soft microfiber cloths and avoid intense friction. - Not drying after cleaning
Standing water—especially on polished marble—can leave stains, rings, or even rust marks.
✅ Pro Tip: Always dry surfaces with a soft cloth and wipe along the natural veining of the marble.
