Natural stone is a popular material used in making kitchen and bathrooms sinks. Natural stones are highly durable but they need to be regularly maintained. With the distinctive combination of stone colors, the addition of stone sinks can surely boost the visual appeal of any bathroom space.

Natural stones are certainly very attractive but they need to be properly maintained in order to last for a long time. The porous surface of natural stone makes it easy for mineral deposits and stains to seep through it and cause discoloration. But with proper care, stone sinks can maintain their elegance for years to come.

In cleaning stone bathroom sinks, you will need:

• Stone cleaner
• Clean cloth
• Stone polish

Steps for Cleaning:

• Regularly clean the stone sink using a professional stone cleaning solution, which is widely available in most hardware stores.
• Apply the cleaning solutions to a soft sponge or clean damp cloth. Wipe the sink evenly with the solution and rinse it thoroughly with warm water. Then use a soft cloth to wipe the sink dry.
• Be sure to wipe the water off the sink after every use and immediately wipe spills from the surface to prevent it from penetrating the stone.
• Remove mineral deposits like salt, lime or calcium to prevent them from accumulating on the sink’s surface. Bear in mind that they can be absorbed by the stone thus resulting to discolorations.
• Manually polish the sink with a stone polisher and pad on a regular basis.

Ensure to use the right type of cleaner that is applicable to the type of stone your sink is made of. Some stone bathroom sinks are more porous than others so ensure that the surface are completely dry by wiping it with a soft cloth to keep the water from seeping into the surface. It is also advised to apply a stone sealer at least once each year. The sealer will help minimize the chance of having elements seep into the stone sink, which can damage its luxurious appearance.
