Frequently Asked Questions
Other FAQs :
- Q: What steps should I take to prepare for the cleaning of my granite surfaces?
- A: To prepare for the cleaning of your granite surfaces, it is recommended to move all furniture and items off the floor. This allows the cleaning team to have unobstructed access to the granite surfaces and ensures that the area is ready for their arrival. By clearing the floor of furniture and items, you can facilitate a smooth and efficient cleaning process for your granite surfaces.
- Q: Does the application of sealer on granite floors make them slippery?
- A: When using Deepshield™ Impregnating Penetrating Sealer, the slipperiness of your granite tile surface remains unaffected. This is because the sealer penetrates the top layer, specifically the surface pores of the granite. However, it's worth noting that applying a Topical Sealer may potentially make your granite floors slippery when they are wet. To preserve both the appearance and slip resistance of your granite surfaces and prevent moisture from being trapped within the stone, it is advisable to seal them with a high-quality, invisible, and fully breathable impregnating sealer. This ensures the optimal protection and maintenance of your granite floors.
- Q: What are the indicators that suggest my granite floors require sealing?
- A: To determine if your granite floors require sealing, there are a few key signs to observe. If your granite floors start to appear dull or lose their shine, even after regular cleaning, it may indicate the need for stripping, cleaning, and resealing. Additionally, if you notice that your granite tiles are becoming easily stained, it suggests that the previous sealer has worn off, necessitating immediate resealing to prevent permanent staining. Monitoring these visual cues and taking prompt action can help maintain the quality and longevity of your granite floors.
- Q: What are the potential consequences of not sealing granite floors?
- A: If granite floors are left unsealed, they can be susceptible to various issues. Due to their porous nature, spills of oily or harsh substances can seep into the granite tiles and penetrate their pores, resulting in permanent staining that cannot be effectively removed through regular domestic cleaning methods. To preserve the natural look and feel of your granite tiles and safeguard them against permanent staining, we strongly recommend sealing them. Sealing provides a protective barrier that prevents spills from penetrating the surface, keeping your granite floors looking their best for an extended period. Furthermore, sealed granite floors are easier to maintain, offering convenience in their upkeep and ensuring their long-term durability.
- Q: What type of sealer is used and does it have any impact on the texture of granite tiles?
- A: Our sealing products exclusively consist of water-based formulas, avoiding the use of solvent-based sealers unless absolutely necessary. Applying the sealer will not alter the texture of your granite tiles in any manner. Instead, its primary function is to provide protection against staining while preserving the desired lustrous finish that you seek for your granite surfaces.
