There appears to be a smudge that refuses to vanish. Nothing seems to work, whether it’s hot water, cold water, or soapy water. The reason for this is that the smudge is on the stone surface itself, not anything that is on top of it. Natural stone, particularly softer forms like marble and limestone, is prone to micro-damage. The stone will be etched by substances that are too far in either way on the PH scale, such as bleach on the basic end and citrus juice on the acidic end. This alters the geometry of the surface only slightly, but enough to produce eye aches that refuse to go away despite your best efforts. A word of caution: do not combine bleach and ammonia. It has the potential to be fatal.
The shift disrupts the stone’s homogeneity on a microscopic level, resulting in the etch or scuff. This is also why the etching is more noticeable the greater the polish (uniformity in the surface structure). That isn’t to argue that surfaces with no polish or low polish are immune to blight.
So, how do you go about fixing it? You, on the other hand, have restored the homogeneity. How do you go about doing that? You’ve contacted us! With the efficiency of a marine drill sergeant, professional craftsmen at Biz Floors will restore the brilliance of your stone by grinding it into form. Not only that, but we additionally seal the stone to help it last longer. An estimator will contact you as soon as possible by phone or email.
