What are the incorrect maintenance methods for Lühui Stone?

As the demand for Luhui stone increases in everyday life, so does the preference for rusted stone in home decor and other applications. Luhui stone, a natural stone material, has inherent capillary pores. If oil, tea, cola, or other substances accidentally adhere to the stone surface, they can easily渗透 into the stone's interior through these pores. Proper maintenance is essential; incorrect methods can only harm the Luhui stone.

Do not rinse with water directly.

Natural rust stone, like natural wood, is a breathable porous material, making it susceptible to absorbing moisture and pollutants through water dissolution. Excessive moisture and pollution absorption in rust stone inevitably lead to various rust stone disorders, such as cracking, weathering, peeling, floating, yellowing, water stains, rust spots, efflorescence, and haziness. Therefore, it is advisable to avoid washing rust stone with water or using excessively damp mops to clean its surface.

No contact with non-neutral items

All rust stones are afraid of acids and alkalis. For example, acids often cause the oxidation of pyrite minerals in granite, resulting in a yellowing effect. Acids can also decompose the calcium carbonate in marble, leading to surface erosion. Alkalis can erode the crystal boundaries of feldspar and quartz in granite, causing particle shedding. Therefore, non-neutral items are the cause of the destruction of the rust stone mirror surface.

Regular cleaning alone is not sufficient; to maintain the luster of our Lu Grey stone, we should schedule regular maintenance and luster-reviving treatments by professional stone care technicians. Incorrect maintenance methods can damage the stone, so everyone must ensure proper care techniques are used.
