Marble's
appeal is that it is a stone
with amazing character and beauty. Marble's weakness is that it is very
soft. This softness allows the surface to be easily scratched with
ordinary use. Common household liquids like vinegar or fruit juices
can leave acid burns which can be very obvious. Marble polishing can
remove burns and scratches and restore a surface to a glossy
finish.
Marble polishing is done in a step by step process that begins with
the cleaning of the surface. Next, the heavy scratches are removed
with a low grit sanding pad. The polish is restored to the marble by
using finer and finer polishing pads until the surface shines. Then
a sealer is applied to finish the marble polishing.
Even a well sealed marble surface can be damaged by common household
liquids that contain acid like wine, fruit juices, and vinegar.
Clean up spills on marble instantly. Marble polishing can remove
light damage caused by these liquids but deep etches may require the
removal of too much material to be practical.
