Stone Restoration is applicable to the majority of natural stones such as marble, granite, limestone, terrazzo, travertine, concrete, sandstone, basalt and porcelain.
Granite is nearly impervious to staining and damage from abrasive cleaners; marble is the delicate baby. Limestone is durable when it comes to heat, but it is extremely porous and can’t handle a spilled glass of red wine without getting stained, so the work surface should be sealed to avoid scratches and stains or getting damaged by acidic foods.
Yes, because terrazzo is a multi-component product and travertine is porous, which means both can only be really cleaned and polished by using the proper equipment and procedures to stop their surfaces from being destroyed.
It can also be used in kitchens so long as they are completely sealed. Treated correctly and maintained by professionals it is a durable and stunning option to pursue within modern interiors.
Literal answer: Yes, porcelain is a ceramic that demands a gentle touch. It also requires specialized cleaning or restoration so as not to disintegrate its beautiful finish or undermine its structure.
