Removing Grout Smear and Etch Marks from Natural Stone Surface


Being a house owner or a corporate business owner, you need to call Marble, Granite, Travertine, Stone Benchtop and Tile Restoration Specialists to elegantly bring those natural stone surfaces back to their original shine.

How to Prevent Grout Smear on Natural Stone Walls
Sealing natural stone tiles is important to avoid grout smear.  It’s advisable to seal with one good coating once before grouting and also one more sealant coating after grouting. Two coatings of sealing can be given before grouting for limestone tiles which are more porous. The film left from grouting porous stone tiles can be removed with the help of a haze remover.

Natural stone surfaces have to be regularly sealed by professionals to keep their elegance and prevent the formation of mould and mildew.

Repolishing Natural Stone Walls in the Bathroom
Repolishing the marble walls involves using a light abrasive on the surface of the tiles. This removes the dull etches (dull marks) on the stone surface. We then use a diamond-cutting compound on the surface of the tiles to remove small swirl marks left from our polishing abrasive. The walls are then cleaned using a special detergent, which will return the tiles surface back to their original finish.

It's important to thoroughly clean and remove excess grout. The characteristic of marble tile is that it's soft and so susceptible to scratching. When the grout is wet, there is not much chance of scratching, but one should be very careful while removing dried grout.

Benefits of Repolishing
  • Removes etching and excess grout off the stone surface in the grinding process.
  • Returns a natural gloss to the dull and etched surface again.
  • We give you a natural glossy reflection without the use of waxes.
