You will LOVE the results. HINTS. 1/. Seal the marble first with Lithofin color enhancer and sealer. 2/. Use a songe dipped in fresh water and a scrubbing brush to remove any adhesive that 'starys' BEFORE it sets. 3/. Ditto grout. Unlike glazed tiules grout will not easily come out of the marble grain and the usual solution - brick acid or scale remnover - will dissolve the marble. 4/. NEVER use limescale remover on marble. Marble IS limescale thats been through a volcano or something similar.. TIA, woodglass... |
