How to remove stains on marble, granite and stone
To remove stains from marble or other types of natural stone, we must first of all know some characteristics of natural stone.
Among many other characteristics, stone is capable of absorbing more or less depending on its porosity. Granite is not the same as marble, limestone or sandstone, not to mention quartz agglomerates or ceramics.
For example, quartz is more resistant to stains than granite. Likewise, granite is much more resistant to stains than marble. That is why in this blog post we are going to see how to remove all kinds of stains on marble or natural stone. And how to protect our surfaces from them whether you are a professional or a private individual.
As we all know, stains can be a big problem in our daily lives. They affect everyday objects such as our worktops, floors, exteriors or stairs. And these oil stains, coffee stains, rust stains or other types of stains can complicate our lives.
Not only can they appear as a result of carelessness, but they can also appear due to exposure to inclement weather.
That is why we must have the right products to get rid of them, such as the ones we enclose and recommend for their perfect effectiveness.

HOW DO WE APPLY SPOT REMOVER TO REMOVE COFFEE, WINE, OIL OR OTHER STAINS ON MARBLE, GRANITE AND STONE?
HOW TO USE THE SPOT REMOVER?
It is advisable to wear gloves when handling the spot remover. Follow these easy steps and you will be able to remove the stains from your marble, granite or stone surface in general:
- First of all, it is important to wet the surface to be treated with water before applying the product.
- With the help of a spatula, apply a uniform layer of Spot Remover of about 4-5 mm.
- Then, leave the product to act for a period of 2 to 3 hours, covering it with plastic film (polyethylene or plastic food wrap).
- This allows the paste to be wet and thus achieve a better absorption of the stain.
After 2-3 hours remove the film and allow the paste to air dry. Once dry (after 8-10 hours, depending on the ambient temperature), the paste dries to a whitish appearance. - Proceed to remove the residues of the paste with a brush and clean with a neutral detergent such as LEM-3 by Bellinzoni (in the case of marble and calcareous stones) or with an alkaline detergent such as BERT-27 by Bellinzoni (in the case of granite and fired stones).
