Identify the stone and its treatment before selecting a cleaner. General floor-cleaner advertising is not enough to establish suitability for stone, grout and sealant together.
What to check
| Check | What to verify |
|---|---|
| Stone | Record the actual material. |
| Finish | Find any sealant care requirements. |
| Product | Check the label and stone supplier's directions. |
