What is marble sealer and how does it work?

Marble sealer, better known as penetrating sealer or marble 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 marble 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.

Your marble finishes and how they are treated in Huntington Beach, CA

Marble Matte (honed)

Sealing your matte-finished marble floor, shower, or counter in Huntington Beach, CA will help reduce the penetration of the liquids that cause stains including colored liquids like wine and juice as well as oils like olive oil and bacon grease. It is important to remember that conventional penetrating sealers will not prevent etches caused by acids. If you have any questions about sealing your matte-finish marble surfaces please call us today!

Marble Satin (Semi-Polished)

Semi-polished finish is a medium to high shine finish on your marble floors, showers, or counters that will show some reflection when looking down into it and a high reflection when looking across it. This is a common finish for some marble floors as well as countertops. Sealing your satin-finished marble surface will help prevent the stains caused by liquids. Remember though that all marble surfaces will etch from liquids containing acids like juice and wine.

Marble Polished Finish

Sealing your polished marble surface will reduce stains. Your marble floors, showers, and walls should be sealed to prevent cooking oils and other liquids from causing dark stains on the surface requiring the need for major stain removal techniques. While sealing will prevent stains, it will not prevent cup rings and other spill marks caused by drinks and household liquids that contain acid. If you are concerned with cup rings and etch marks on your marble counters consider applying AntiEtch®.

Marble Leathered Finish

is a rough or textured finish most commonly done in Huntington Beach, CA on marble and natural stone floors and counters. The leathered finish on your marble counter is achieved using abrasive brushes that remove the softer parts of the stone while polishing the harder areas of the stone. Leathered finishes come at all levels of shine from matte to polished. A leathered marble counter has an old-world look and feel. Sealing a leathered finish marble surface will help prevent stains. Call today to discuss having your leathered marble surfaces sealed.

Caring for your marble in Huntington Beach, CA

1

You should always remember that etches and stains are distinctly different issues that can occur on your marble 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.

2

Use coasters or other protective measures to prevent etches caused by liquids. We have all seen those rings and drip marks on our marble counters. Using coasters will keep those incidental ring marks off your counter.

3

Dust mop and vacuum your marble floors regularly, daily if possible. The amount of foot traffic in your home or business will determine how often you should clean. If there’s construction nearby in Huntington Beach, CA, you might need to clean more often. Use a vacuum that’s safe for hard surfaces and won’t scratch your stone floors.

4

To avoid scratches or other damage to your marble floors, use felt pads under the legs of furniture, especially items that get moved around a lot like dining chairs and couches. If you need help with this, Sureshine can do it during our refinishing service in Huntington Beach, CA. Just give us a call or ask your consultant for a price. We’ll want to know how many items you have and we might ask for pictures, so have those ready.
