Travertine is a beautiful, natural stone with a rich history, but like all porous stones, it requires proper care to maintain its appearance and longevity. Follow these simple steps to keep your Travertine basins, baths and surfaces looking their best.
WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
- Non-abrasive cleaner or soap
- Soft, microfibre cloth
AFTERCARE
1. Regular Cleaning: Wipe the Travertine surface with warm water and a soft microfibre cloth.
2. Dry Thoroughly: Use a soft, dry cloth to remove any moisture.
3. Attend To Spills Immediately: Blot liquids with a soft cloth. Mild soap can be used sparingly, but frequent use may discolour the stone.
4. Prevent Damage: Avoid deep scratches, chips or stains. For serious damage, consult a professional to re-grind or polish the stone.
5. Annual Resealing: Protect you Travertine by resealing at least once a year, either professionally or with a quality sealer such as More™ Premium Stone Sealer.
RECOMMENDATIONS
- Avoid the use of harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaners.
- Use placemats under hot items such as hair appliances, and coasters under beverages.
- Keep acidic substances such as wine, coffee and acidic cleaning materials away from the surface.
- Avoid heavy or sharp objects that may clip or scratch the stone.
With consistent care, your Travertine surfaces will maintain their natural elegance and provide lasting beauty for years to come.
