Cortese® Stone is durable and low-maintenance, but proper aftercare ensures your stone bath or basin remains beautiful for years. Regular cleaning prevents soap scum, water marks, and discoloration, while protecting the surface from scratches and damage.
DAILY & WEEKLY CARE
-
Rinse and dry after each use: Prevents residue and soap scum from building up.
-
Use a soft cloth: Microfibre or similar soft materials are ideal.
-
Avoid harsh chemicals: Strong cleaners, paint removers, alcohol, or cosmetics can damage the surface or cause discoloration.
-
Protect from heat and sharp objects: Hair tools, razors, and jewelry can scratch or damage your stone.
CLEANING WHITE STONE
White stone baths are easier to maintain but scratches may be more visible on matte finishes.
To remove minor scratches:
-
Keep the surface damp.
-
Apply a cream cleanser using a sponge, moving in straight horizontal lines.
-
Ensure the cleanser blends seamlessly with the surrounding surface.
-
Repeat over a larger area if necessary.

CLEANING COLOURED STONE
Darker stone, such as black or charcoal, requires regular cleaning (at least once per week) using:
-
Warm, soapy water
