How to Clean and Maintain Agglomerated Marble

Posted on October 10, 2016 by terangtrade_y8g8wh

Agglomerated marble is formed of marble or stone chips and dust. The binder can be epoxy or other resins.

While agglomerated marble tiles are very beautiful, using the wrong cleaning chemical can make the surface dull, look scratched all over, and possibly fade in colour. It may even go white.

In extreme cases, the wrong chemicals may result in cleaning marks (circular wiping or mop marks) are often obvious and can be seen across adjacent tiles. This is because agglomerated marble is very a sensitive tile.

To maintain your Marble, we recommends using Granite and Marble Impregnation once a year or so.

Granite and Marble Impregnation

~~$60.00~~ $48.00

Granite and Marble Impregnation is a ready-to-use special impregnation that protects against oil, grease and water marks. It also helps to block dirt, moisture, paint, oil and grease, and makes cleaning easier. In the event of a spill, any staining liquids can be wiped off easily before they penetrate the surface. Finally, it protects grout against water and oil-based marks.

1. Ensure that the base is clean, dry and absorbent before the treatment.

2. Apply the undiluted product liberally, in an even layer – according to how absorbent the base is – using a soft brush or plastic roller.

3. A second application will make it more effective, but only apply as much as the base can absorb.

4. Let it sit for about 1 hour, then use a dry, absorbent cloth to wipe away any impregnation that did not soak in. Do not leave any streaks.

5. The drying time is 3 to 4 hours; do not step on the treated surface during this time.

6. The impregnation will take full effect after 24 hours

Marble is relatively soft and porous, compared to granite. It is particularly sensitive to the acid, especially to the acid found in some fruits, wine and some general cleaning products. Spillages may therefore corrode the marble. As well as stains from the pigments in common foodstuffs such as coffee and curry powder make leave a mark on the marble surface.

Marble tiles are extremely versatile and perfect for both residential and commercial projects alike. In addition to flooring tiles, marble are often used as table tops (e.g. kitchen tops).
