What ruins white marble countertops?
There are several factors that can ruin white marble countertops. Some common causes include: 1. Staining: White marble is porous in nature, making it susceptible to absorbing liquids and resulting in stains. Spills of colored liquids like red wine, coffee, or acidic substances like lemon juice can leave permanent stains on the surface if not immediately cleaned. 2. Etching: Marble is a calcium-based stone that reacts with acidic substances, causing the surface to lose its shine and leaving dull spots or etch marks. Citrus fruits, vinegar, and some cleaning agents can cause etching on the surface of white marble countertops. 3. Scratching: Although marble is a relatively soft stone, it can still scratch if not handled properly. Dragging heavy or sharp objects across the countertop, using abrasive cleaning tools, or cutting directly on the surface can result in scratches and damage the appearance of white marble. 4. Heat damage: Placing hot pans or pots directly on the marble countertop can cause thermal shock and lead to cracks or discoloration. It is recommended to use trivets or hot pads to protect the surface from excessive heat. 5. Improper cleaning products: Harsh chemical cleaners containing ammonia, bleach, or acidic substances can damage the marbles surface and result in discoloration. It is best to use mild, pH-neutral cleaners specifically designed for natural stone surfaces. Regular maintenance, immediate cleaning of spills, using cutting boards, and employing proper sealing can help preserve the beauty and integrity of white marble countertops.
