At present, there are many decorative materials on the market, and because of its unique mechanism and texture, stone has become the darling of decorative materials, so how to maintain it so that it can be used for longer? The following editor will share the knowledge of several common material maintenance for you!
1. Marble
1. Dust the marble from time to time, use less water when cleaning, wipe with a slightly damp cloth with mild detergent, and then dry and polish with a clean soft cloth to restore its luster.
2. Lemon juice and vinegar can be used to clean the stains, but the time for the lemon juice to stay on it should not exceed 2 minutes. Repeat the operation if necessary, then wash and dry.
3. For minor abrasions, use special Shidafu marble polishing powder and Shidafu stone care agent; severely worn marbles can be wiped with steel wool, and then polished with an electric sander to restore the original luster.
4. Use warm water wax to maintain the surface, which will not block the pores of the stone, but can also form a protective layer on the surface. However, the water wax is not durable. It is best to maintain it every 3-5 months.
5. If the luster of the marble becomes dim, the only way to repair it is to polish it again.
2. Granite
1. It is best to use a vacuum cleaner or an electrostatic mop to remove dust.
2. Avoid strong acid or alkali cleaning agents, try to use special stone cleaning agents.
3. Because granite has strong water absorption, it is easy to form water spots on the joints of the stone, and it is not easy to dry, and it is difficult to eradicate. Water should be used as little as possible, and even water should be quickly absorbed.
4. When the paint or pigment drips on it, in addition to sticking to the surface, a part of it penetrates into the superficial layer. Before cleaning, use a thin blade to peel the contaminated thin layer on the surface of the stone, and then use the stone doctor stone cleaning agent to clean it.
5. If there are oil stains, ash and unknown dirt on the granite, you can use a cleaning agent containing a surfactant formula to clean it. When cleaning, pour the cleaning agent on the work surface, brush it with a slightly harder brush, soak for about 10 minutes, then scrub with the brush back and forth, then clean up the dirty liquid, and then scrub twice with clean water.
Three, artificial stone
1. Usually only need to wipe with a sponge and neutral detergent to keep it clean.
2. If you want to disinfect the artificial stone, you can use diluted daily bleach (mixed with water 1:3 or 1:4) or other disinfectant to wipe its surface. Wipe it off in time with a towel and try to keep the countertop dry.
3. The artificial stone on the matt surface can be polished with a decontamination cleaner in a circular manner, then cleaned, and then polished with wool. 4. The artificial stone with a semi-matte surface shall be polished in a circular manner with a scouring pad dipped in a non-abrasive cleaning agent. Wipe, dry with a towel and use a non-abrasive polishing material to enhance the surface brightening effect.
5. Artificial stone with high gloss surface can be polished with sponge and non-abrasive brightener. Dirt that is particularly difficult to remove can be polished with 1200 mesh sandpaper, and then brightened with a soft cloth and brightener (or furniture wax).
