Not directly rinse
Like natural stone and natural wood , as a breath of porous material , so it is easy to absorb moisture or dissolved by water intrusion contamination. If the stone absorbs excess moisture and pollution , will inevitably cause a variety of stone disease , such as: crack , weathered , fall off, float, vomiting yellow , water spots , rust , white China , matte and other annoying problems . Therefore stone with water should be avoided or too wet mop to wash the stone surface .
Do not touch the non-neutral items
All stones are afraid of acids and bases. For example: Granite acid often caused by pyrite oxidation and vomiting yellow phenomenon of acid will decompose calcium carbonate contained in the marble , causing surface erosion , alkali feldspar also eroded granite and quartz in silicified the result was crystallized grain boundary peeling phenomenon. Therefore, non-neutral items were damaged stone mirror causes.
Not free on December
Any type of wax on the market more than a water-based wax, fatty acid wax feeling oily wax , acrylic wax and so on. These are basically wax containing acid substances. Not only can clog the pores of the stone breathe , but also the formation of dust and dirt stained wax scale , resulting in the phenomenon of yellow stone surface . If pedestrians and goods must place a high frequency of waxing , then you must please all professional maintenance company guidance with wax and maintenance .
Not be used indiscriminately non-neutral detergent
For the sake of quick cleaning effect , general cleaning contain pH , it is unknown if prolonged use of detergent ingredients , will make the stone surface luster lost, because of the non-neutral pharmaceutical residues of stone disease is the main cause of the future generation .
Not long-term coverage carpet, debris
In order to maintain smooth breathing stone , stone surfaces should be avoided in the long-term coverage carpets and debris , otherwise stone stone pores under the moisture can not evaporate . The stone due to excessive moisture, water content increased stone disease problems arising annoying as you have to carpeting , stacked debris , please do not forget to always change to thoroughly kept clean .
Whether hard granite texture ( hardness HRs88-111 ± 4-7) or the soft texture of marble ( hardness HRs46-77 ± 3-5) were resistant to sand and soil particles long-term devastation .
Or take advantage of some time due to dust and electrostatic dust mop and cleaning thoroughly good job.
Commercial space is best to place the divider at the entrance mats, shoes brought the sand filter . After the introduction into slippers home best to reduce dust sand stone surface wear opportunity .
To regular maintenance , maintain luster , dusting , cleaning is not so bright shiny stone continued to maintain refundable . So be sure to regularly invite professional company to do maintenance and regeneration gloss maintenance work .
Such as : liquid so that the crystalline marble , recrystallization, or by using polishing powder for marble or granite surface gloss reproduction , or a polishing powder for marble or granite surface regeneration gloss , or gloss with breathable protection and the like . Holding on to the stone can be as good as new .
To immediately decontamination
All stones are a natural pores , pollution ( oil , tea , coffee, cola , soy sauce, ink, etc. ) will easily penetrate into the stone along the pores formed inside nasty stains. So be sure to choose a good quality stone dedicated protectant applied for in the stone , the stone to prevent contamination sources . All you want to know the long-term denial protectants are not hundred percent contamination , so once a source of pollution on the stone must be poured immediately clear , in order to prevent infiltration of one hundred material within the pores .
To always kept dry and ventilated
Stone afraid of too much humidity . Stone will produce water vapor hydration , hydrolysis and carbonic acid , thus producing water spots, bleaching, weathering, erosion , rust, yellow and other diseases , destroy the stone . Therefore stone installation exit to often kept dry and ventilated .
Regularly applied for protective treatment
To ensure long life of stone , block the infiltration of water and pollution , we must periodically ( depending on the quality of the stone type and protectant is best done 1-2 times 1-3 years treatment ) applied as a protective treatment . Protectants must pay special attention to the quality . After applications must be able to maintain the stone breathability and water resistance , stain resistance . Never use unsolicited repellant , so not only reach the protective effect, but increased the stone maintenance problems.
