How to Maintain Natural Marble?
Over 20 Years of maintaining Experience Sharing
Did you find that other people's marble is particularly beautiful and glossy? It's not much different from the effect of just laying bricks. Do you usually pay attention to the maintenance of stones? In fact, the stone floor and our face, do not pay attention to the maintenance, of course, easy to aging. If the stone is not maintained, it will cause alkali return, yellow spit, rust spot, yellow spot, and other phenomena, then do you know why the stone should be maintained?
01
Why does stone change
The stone itself has a natural outstanding physical characteristic - water absorption (generally granite water absorption in 0.1-0.2%). In this way, due to unreasonable stacking, packaging, transportation and external pollution sources, such as water vapor, rainwater, oil and so on, stone materials are easy to produce pollution.
The pollution problems that users often encounter are Pan alkali, rust spot, spit yellow, stain, oil spot, straw rope yellow and weathering, aging, fading, gloss wear and so on. In addition, the problems that our construction personnel often encounter in the construction, such as water sports are not dry - watermark phenomenon after the stone wet paste construction, are often encountered in the project, which is also one of the main reasons for project disputes.
First, let's talk about the internal factors of the stone itself:
1. The natural microporosity of stone: don't talk with friends about the principle. In short, the stone will breathe. If you accidentally suck in water, it will easily produce multiple clock phenomena, such as water spots.
2. Relatively complex chemical composition of stone: different chemical composition of each stone leads to chemical effect with external substances, for example, the iron content of stone is directly related to rust spots.
Let's talk about external factors. It's right that the weather is favorable and the place is favorable:
1. The medium effect of water: it's also water. I don't know if my friends notice it. Many stone diseases are caused by water, so we must ensure the dryness of stone.
2. Infiltration of pollutants: mainly including pollution of water-based liquid substances (such as tea, coffee, cola, soy sauce, soup, etc.); organic substances (such as wood, straw, cardboard box, cigarette, etc.); oily or oil-soluble substances (such as engine oil, edible oil, gasoline, solvent, coke oil, etc.); adhesive materials (such as paint, marker, ink, toner, crayon, dye, oil, etc.) Ink, etc.); transfer printing of colored materials (such as striped cloth, colored paper, decolorized clothing, etc.), this pollution will cause pollution or even damage to the stone.
3. Chemical and biochemical reasons: some pollutants will be accompanied by obvious chemical changes and chemical erosion. There are also organisms that secrete acidic substances that can easily absorb certain minerals in rocks, causing biological erosion from the surface. Such as sawdust, iron, welding sparks, and other corrosion fluid, as well as environmental pollution, acid rain erosion and so on, will cause pollution and corrosion to stone.
4. Erosion and weathering of natural environmental conditions: the influence of dry and wet cycle on stone materials, the change of air and surrounding environment humidity day by day and year by year, which makes stone materials produce frequent wet expansion and dry shrinkage. In winter, the cold makes the stone crack inside or around frozen, resulting in expansion, freezing and thawing. Salt alkali, sand and so on will have the destruction erosion to the stone material.
5. Improper cleaning and nursing methods and management: This is also the damage to stone caused by human factors, mainly reflected in the pollution of expansion agent, explosive, iron sawdust, engine oil, etc. used in the mining and processing of stone; and the damage to stone caused by improper methods in the process of transportation, installation, and use, etc.

The necessity and timeliness of stone maintenance
Necessity: no matter the new stone or the renovated stone, with the normal use and the passage of time, the wear of stone will become more and more serious, and its luster will become lower and lower. Stone maintenance is becoming more and more necessary.
Timeliness: stone materials must be maintained in time to reach the required level. If the glossiness decreases by more than the restoration capacity, it is difficult to reach the restoration level. In short, if not timely maintenance, the stone is very easy to become difficult to cure. Look at your stone. Do you need some maintenance?

How to maintain Natural Marble
1. To thoroughly maintain clean, clean: no matter the texture of hard granite or soft marble are not resistant to the long-term damage of wind sand and soil particles. Therefore, it is necessary to use the dust remover and electrostatic mop from time to time to complete the dust removal and cleaning work.
2. Regular maintenance and maintenance of luster: only by dust removal, cleaning is not able to keep the luster of bright stones. Therefore, we must regularly ask professional companies to send people to do maintenance and gloss regeneration.
3. Clean up the pollution immediately: all natural stones have pores, and the pollution sources (oil, tea, coffee, cola, soy sauce, ink, etc.) will easily penetrate into the stone along the pores, forming an annoying stain. Therefore, it is necessary to select a high-quality stone special protective agent to prevent the pollution source from polluting the stone. It is necessary to know that all protective agents can not block the pollution for a long time, so once there is a pollution source poured on the stone, it must be removed immediately to prevent it from infiltrating into the capillary hole of the stone.
4. Always keep the air dry: stone is afraid of too much humidity. Water-gas will produce hydration, hydrolysis, and carbonation on stone materials, produce water spots, white flowers, weathering, rust yellow, and other diseases, and destroy stone materials. Therefore, the stone installation place should always keep ventilation and dry.
