Marble tiles are a timeless choice for elegance, but their porous surface makes them prone to stains. Removing stains effectively requires the right technique to maintain their beauty. Here's how to handle it:
First, identify the type of stain—oil-based, organic, or rust. For most stains, a mixture of baking soda and water works wonders. Create a paste, apply it to the stained area, and cover it with plastic wrap to let it sit for 24-48 hours. Once dried, gently wipe it off with a damp cloth. For tougher stains like rust, a commercial marble cleaner might be needed—just ensure it’s designed specifically for marble to avoid damage.
Avoid abrasive scrubbers or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch the surface or dull the finish. Regularly clean your marble tiles with a mild, pH-neutral cleaner to prevent stains from setting in.
