MORE® AntiEtch® Marble Countertop Protection in Westlake, TX

Marble countertops are a signature feature in many Westlake homes, especially in kitchens designed for entertaining. While marble delivers timeless beauty, it is naturally vulnerable to etching from acidic foods, beverages, and even everyday cleaning products. Sureshine Care and Restoration Services, Inc. installs MORE® AntiEtch® to protect marble surfaces while preserving their natural character.

Why Marble Etching Is So Common in Kitchens

Etching is not a stain — it’s a chemical reaction between acid and calcium-based stone. Even brief contact with lemon juice, wine, vinegar, or certain cleaners can permanently dull marble if it’s unprotected.

How AntiEtch® Changes Daily Use

  • Marble becomes far more forgiving during cooking and entertaining

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does marble etch even when I’m careful?

Etching happens instantly on contact with acid — even brief exposure can dull marble. Careful use helps, but it doesn’t eliminate the risk without surface protection.

How is AntiEtch® different from polishing more often?

Polishing removes damage after it happens. AntiEtch® helps prevent damage in the first place, extending the time between restorations.

Can AntiEtch® be removed or changed later?

Yes. AntiEtch® can be professionally refinished or renewed if your preferences change or the surface experiences long-term wear.

Is AntiEtch® noticeable when light hits the stone?

No. Once finished, the coating is optically clear and refined to avoid a “plastic” or coated look.
