When it comes to sealing your limestone floors, showers, counters, or other surfaces we take note of where they are installed, the finish, and expected traffic. At Sureshine we recommend that all natural stone surfaces should be sealed at least one time especially high use areas like kitchens and bathrooms.
Some exterior surfaces may not require sealing. In fact sealer can sometimes diminish the long-term viability of some limestone surfaces. If you have questions about limestone sealer we are here to help!
Limestone sealer, better known as penetrating sealer or limestone impregnator is a liquid that contains solid sealer particles. The liquid is applied to the surface and allowed to penetrate into the pores of the limestone surface. If allowed to dwell for the proper time, agitated, and then removed, the solid sealer particle is left in the stone. The sealer will then act as a repellent for water and sometimes oil-based liquids.

We only use professional-grade sealers that penetrate into the pores of your limestone floor and grout to offer the best protection against stain-causing liquids.

Sealing a leathered finish limestone surface will help prevent stains. Call today to discuss having your leathered limestone surfaces sealed.
You should always remember that etches and stains are distinctly different issues that can occur on your limestone counters. Etches are chemical reactions that physically disrupt the surface causing ring marks and drips marks that make it look dirty and can not be removed with any level of cleaning. Etches can more easily be seen when looking at the counters at an angle. The disruption in the surface is a disruption in the shine.
