MARBLE CARE
Marble is very porous and can be prone to staining and etching. Regular cleaning and sealing are good ideas.

Sealants don't make marble stain proof, but they make it stain resistant. Make sure your sealant is food safe if you're using it in a kitchen. When water no longer beads on the surface and instead leaves a dark spot, that means it has soaked into the stone's pores and the sealer must be reapplied.

Prevention is key - invest in coasters, cutting boards, trays or baskets to hold items on its surface. Any scratches or etching will need to be fixed by a pro, so it's best to try and avoid them in the first place.

Acid is terrible for marble. If things like wine or lemon juice spill, clean them up as soon as possible. Also, avoid cleaners that include vinegar.

Warm, soapy water is the best way to spot clean spills. Rinse well, sop up remaining water and dry it.

For most organic food stains, try a cleaning solution with 12% hydrogen peroxide & a few drops of ammonia. If you spill anything with an oil base, a liquid cleanser that contains household detergent, mineral spirits, or acetone should help.

In stock items usually leave the warehouse in 5 - 7 business days.
