Frequently Asked Questions
Other FAQs :
- Q: What is the process of acid etching and what measures can be taken to safeguard sandstone against it?
- A: Acid etching refers to the process where acidic substances come into contact with sandstone tiles, causing them to corrode or be eaten away. Sandstone is particularly vulnerable to acid attacks, and protecting it from such damage can be challenging. The most effective way to safeguard your sandstone tiles is to promptly seal them and clean up any spills immediately. Given the high porosity of stone-based tiles, sealing is essential to provide protection against future acid attacks and liquid spills. By sealing your sandstone tiles, you create a barrier that helps prevent the penetration of acids and other damaging substances, thereby minimizing the risk of etching and preserving the integrity of your sandstone surfaces.

- Q: What does the term "sealer" refer to?
- A: When we talk about a "sealer," we are referring to a liquid or carrier that contains a resin. This substance is applied to porous surfaces, whether they are natural stone or man-made materials. The primary function of a sealer is to provide protection against staining caused by water and/or oil-based materials. By applying the sealer, you can prevent these substances from penetrating and staining the surface. Additionally, a sealer can enhance the overall cleaning results by making it easier to clean and maintain the surfaces effectively.
- Q: What steps should be taken to prepare sandstone floors before the sealing process?
- A: Before we arrive to seal your sandstone floors, it is important to ensure that all furniture and items have been moved off the floors. By clearing the area, you provide our team with unobstructed access to the sandstone surfaces, allowing for a more efficient and effective sealing process.
- Q: What is the significance of sealing sandstone tiles?
- A: Sealing sandstone tiles is a crucial step in ensuring their long-term quality and preventing potential damage. Unlike polishes, sealers are specifically formulated to create a protective barrier that prevents liquids and dirt particles from penetrating the porous nature of the natural stone. It is highly recommended to have your sandstone tiles sealed, especially during the initial installation process, as this initial seal can provide effective protection for up to 15 years. By promptly contacting professionals to seal your sandstone floors after installation, you can safeguard them against accidental permanent damage, preserving their beauty and durability for years to come.
