STAIN PROTECTION & TREATMENT

Contrary to popular belief, natural and engineered stones are porous and will absorb stains if they are left unattended.

Recommendations for cleaning Stains

• Prevention is better than cure – as soon as a spill occurs, use a paper towel to clean it up. Avoid spreading the spill
• Wash the area with clean water and a neutral soap a few times until the stain is not visible any more
• If the stain still remains, it would need to be treated differently depending upon what caused the stain

The Marble Institute of America (www.marble-institute.com) has extensive information on a variety of stains and how to remove them. If you find that removing a stain is proving to be too difficult, contact your fabricator or installer for recommendations as well.
