Granite, Travertine, Marble Onyx & Other Natural StonesFAQ's - MB-6 Color Enhancer
What Is MB-6 Color Enhancer? It's a product that Enhances The Color of your stone. MB-6 deepens the color of your granite, travertine, marble, onyx or other natural stone by giving it the wet look.
Why Use It? - Add shine and depth to your stone.
- Darken your grout.
- Repel water.
- Reduce fingerprints. (especially on honed black granite.)
- Obtain a more polished or finished look on rough surfaces.
- Camouflage scratches on non polished stones.
- Match edges to the surface of your stone. (Ex: Tile Edges.)

Where Do I Use It? Use it on granite, travertine, marble, limestone, onyx ... all non polished stone surfaces.
MB-6 can be used on polished surfaces but is more noticeable on honed, flamed, leathered, antiqued, tumbled, satin and brushed finishes.
Use it on vertical or horizontal surfaces such as counter tops, back splashes, vanities, showers, fireplaces, and floors. Use it on rocks and grout. Use it inside or out.
How Long Does It Last?
- It lasts longer on interior surfaces than exterior surfaces.
- It lasts longer on counter tops & vanities vs. floors.
We applied the color enhancer on a heavily trafficked (residential) interior slate floor. It lasted about 3 years before we reapplied it. You'll notice over time the color fades.
We also enhanced a few boulders outside. The enhancer has lasted through two Minnesota winters so far. The color has faded but the boulders still don't look as dry and dusty as they did before applying the enhancer.

How Do I Use MB-6 Color Enhancer?- Clean your surface with a cleaner such as
MB-5 For Counters or MB-1 For Floors. - Apply the MB-6 with a rag, paint brush, roller or sprayer.
- Let it sit 5 minutes or so (it penetrates into the stone) and then wipe off any excess.
TIPS - - Before purchasing MB-6, get your stone wet. Like the color? This is how your stone will look once MB-6 is applied.
- Apply the enhancer BEFORE any sealer. Very Important!
- Wear gloves.
- Feel sticky after applying? Give it a day or so. If it still feels sticky - use a little more enhancer or mineral spirits to remove any excess from the surface.
- Need a straight line? Use blue painters tape. This will also keep the enhancer where you want it.

How Long Does MB-6 Take to Apply? This depends on how much stone you are enhancing and where it is located (walls, counters, floors etc.).
Typically, an hundred square feet of floors will take about 1 hour.
Does It Work? Yes.

We tested the MB-6 Color Enhancer on a slate floor. We wanted to see if there was a huge difference in color, if it could camouflage scratches and how long the enhanced look lasted.
What We Did....
- Cleaned the Slate with MB-1 Marble & Granite Floor Cleaner.
- Applied the color enhancer with a paint brush.
- Let the enhancer dry overnight.
- Applied another coat of enhancer.
We then took a key, scratched the floor and reapplied enhancer on just the scratched tile.
Results The difference was incredible! The slate went from dusty and drab to deeper and darker. Did The Color Improve? YES! The blacks became a deep charcoal instead of dusty gray - the greens evened out - the reds, rusts and oranges looked fresher and clean. The colors appeared brighter.
Did The Scratch Disappear? YES. It was perfect - no sign of the scratch. Will it work on other stones? It might. Get the area wet. Did the scratch disappear? If so, the MB-6 will probably work.
It had been 3 years since we applied the MB-6 to the slate floor. The color had faded but the slate did not look as dusty as the day it was installed. We recently applied another coat of enhancer and the floor looks like new again.
We decided to try MB-6 on a few different stones. The enhanced side is on your right.

MB-6 Color Enhancer increased the depth of color on all the stones we applied it to. The look changed drastically on every stone. We did not try it on any polished stones but have heard back from customers that it works. The simplest and least expensive way to know if you'll like how the color enhancer will look is by getting your stone wet.
