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 Easy Care in the washing water. A "golf ball sized blob" in a half bucket of water works well. Mop the floor but do not rinse. You can use Easy Care as often as you wish, it does not build up any layers. It works best if used quite regularly rather than allwoing the stone to become too dirty before it is washing.
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 th ekitchen or an entrance hall this may be annually.
For a Periodic Deeper Clean you can use Power Clean diluted about 1:15 with water. Use plenty of solution and agitate with a soft brush or mop. Allow a contact time of a few minutes. Rinse well.
We advise against using Power Clean more than once a month or you will degrade the performance of the sealer.
Accidents and Spillages
For bad spillages and accidents such as dropping food or drink you should use Power Clean diluted approximately 1:10 with water. Rinse well. Follow all instructions on the product.
