Products such as Scrubbing Bubbles®, Lime Away® and Magic Eraser® are simply too harsh! It's just as easy to use stone friendly products on your stone!
THIS IS WHAT ETCHING LOOKS LIKE:
Can I Use Windex?
You may be tempted to use windex but it just might etch your marble. There are quite a few different varieties of 'Windex' on the market. Some contain vinegar or ammonia... not something you want on your marble.
Can I Use Soap & Water?
Yes you can - BUT - soap eventually leaves a grimy build up of soap scum and it's really hard to rinse away all of that soap. Soap scum is more noticeable on the darker stones and also in bright lights.
If you already have soap scum - here's a safe product to get rid of it!
Can I Use Plain Water With A Sponge?
Yes. No harm here. But you really want a safe daily cleaner to eradicate bacteria.
Quick Note On Sponges & Scrubbies: DON'T use any green or brown scouring pads. The presence of silicon carbide grits in them will scratch your stone. You can safely use the sponges lined with a silvery net, or other plastic scouring pads.
Do I Have To Use Specialty Products?
No, you don't have to do anything. Use products made for cleaning stone to avoid etching your marble, to keep it looking beautiful and to avoid future problems!
