CLEANING AND SEALING OPTIONS FOR MARBLE
ALL ABOUT MARBLE
Marble is a granular metamorphic rock composed of recrystallized carbonate minerals, most commonly calcite or dolomite. Recrystallisation is caused by metamorphism (heat and pressure) of these minerals. This also results in the different type of veining and colours seen in marble along with the different textures (fine to coarse). Due to the high content of calcium carbonate, travertine is susceptible to etching from acid based contaminants eg wine, citrus, soft drinks. Sealing Marble with Professional Grade sealers is recommended to offer for stain resistance and make ongoing maintenance easier.

GENERAL NOTE:
These recommendations are intended as general guidelines for all available cleaning and sealing options. Read product label, technical bulletin and SDS thoroughly prior to use. Always test first to determine number of coats, desired look, dilution of chemicals, dwell time and the final result. Sealers are not waterproofing agents and do not protect against etching by acid based contaminants or harsh chemicals.
COVERAGE NOTE:
All coverages and suggested number of coats are approximate and only as a guide. Coverage will vary depending on surface density, porosity, texture and absorption. Also weather conditions, the application method and number of coats required.
