Marble Floors-Care and Cleaning
Care
Seal the marble with paste or sealer to prevent
stains and soil from being absorbed into the porous
surface. Do not let acids contact the marble as they will
etch it. Strong alkaline solutions are absorbed by the
marble and break down the surface leaving it rough.
Cleaning
If well-sealed, damp-mopping should keep it clean.
If soil does not all come off, wash with a solution of
mild detergent and water, and rinse thoroughly. Remove
stains promptly. Check with a local marble dealer for
special cleaners if needed to remove stains. (See Marble
Furniture for more on stain removal.)
