How to Clean and Avoid Stains on Marble: Practical Tips for a Flawless Surface

To remove stains from marble, it is essential to use specific detergents for cleaning this material. Avoid using acidic or abrasive products that could damage the surface. Instead, opt for mild and non-corrosive detergents, specially formulated for marble.

When it comes to eliminating specific stains, such as those caused by substances such as coffee, wine or fat, it is advisable to act promptly. Absorb the liquid with a soft cloth or sponge without rubbing, and then apply a marble-specific cleaner to the stain. Leave the product on for a few minutes before rinsing with clean water.

To prevent the formation of stains on marble surfaces, it is important to take some daily precautions. Avoid prolonged exposure to substances that could stain the material, such as acidic juices or edible oils. Always use coasters or placemats under hot plates to avoid heat damage. You can try using home remedies such as olive oil or baking soda mixed with water to create a thick paste to apply to the matte surface of marble. Also, be sure to regularly clean the marble surfaces with a soft cloth and warm water to remove dust and accumulated dirt. Avoid using abrasive sponges or rough rags that might scratch the material.

Following these simple practical tips, you can keep your marble surfaces always clean and spotless, preserving their natural beauty over time.

2 March 2026 Sodium Percarbonate: What It Is and How to Use It at Home
Sodium percarbonate is a water-soluble powder widely used to remove stains, whiten laundry, and support hygienic cleaning on fabrics and washable household surfaces. When dissolved in water, it releases oxygen. This reaction helps break down stains and organic residues in a simple and effective way. If you often deal with yellowed white clothes, stains that remain even after washing, bins that keep unpleasant smells, shower curtains with marks, or surfaces dulled by residues and streaks, you are probably looking for exactly this kind of solution. However, sodium percarbonate is not designed for heavy degreasing. If you need to remove thick grease layers or stubborn encrustations, a dedicated degreasing detergent will work better.
