Maintain an Internal Limestone Floor

Always follow instructions on the product labels, technical information and videos.

Always test products on a small area first.

Please contact us if you have any queries.

 

This document covers daily and weekly maintenance plus some slightly more aggressive, routine maintenance that may be required on high traffic areas.

 

The Following Will Not Increase The Shine On Your Stone

If your stone is dry and dusty simply sweep or vacuum clean.

When it needs a routine wash use Lantaclean in the washing water. Use about 50ml to 100ml in a half bucket. Mop the floor but do not rinse. You can use Lantaclean as often as you wish. It works best if used quite regularly rather than allowing the stone to become too dirty before it is washed. If any residue builds up over time it can be removed by washing with clean water.

Your stone may require a Periodic Deeper Clean. In certain, localised highly stressed areas such as by a cooker or kitchen island this may be monthly. Other areas such as the rest of the kitchen or an entrance hall this may be annually.

For a Periodic Deeper Clean you can use PAL4 diluted about 1:10 with water. Use plenty of solution and agitate with a soft brush or mop. We show recommended tools on the Product Pages. Allow a contact time of a few minutes and then rinse well.

We advise against using PAL4 more than once a month or you will degrade the performance of the sealer. 

 

Use The Following Products If You Want To Increase The Shine On Your Stone

Maintain your stone as per the above instructions.

You can use one of the following products in addition if you would like to increase the sheen or shine on the stone.

For limestone with a rough or antique type finish or a "coarse" hone (flat but not particularly smooth) you can use Hidrosebin. This can be applied neat or diluted, please follow the instructions carefully, do a demo area first and Contact Us first if you require assistance.

 

Accidents and Spillages

For bad spillages and accidents such as dropping food or drink you should use PAL4 diluted approximately 1:10 with water, as per the instructions for a periodic deep clean, above.

Always be careful with acidic products on limestone. Wine, citrus juice, vinegar and some carbonated drinks are acidic and will etch (damage the surface) of a limestone, even if sealed.
