Stone Stain Removal Greenhills Beach - Southern Sydney
Although it is important to prevent stains, depending on the situation, this sometimes can not be avoided. In such cases, Greenhills Beach's Tile Cleaners® technicians have a variety of stain removal techniques to help remove all types of unwanted taint and contamination.
Spills and Stains
Stain Removal
Types of Stain
Classification of stone stains
- OIL-BASED(grease, tar, cooking oil, milk, cosmetics)
- ORGANIC (coffee, tea, fruit, tobacco, paper, food, urine, leaves, bark, bird droppings)
- METAL(iron, rust, copper, bronze)
- BIOLOGICAL(algae, mildew, lichens, moss, fungi)
- INK(magic marker, pen, ink)
- PAINT
- WATER SPOTS AND RINGS(surface accumulation of hard water)
- FIRE AND SMOKE DAMAGE
- ETCH MARKS(Etch marks are caused by acids left on the surface of the stone)
Poultices
A poultice is a liquid cleaner or chemical mixed with a white absorbent material to form a paste about the consistency of peanut butter. The poultice is kept moist and covered to allow time(up to 48 hours) for the liquid cleaner to sufficiently penetrate the stone and dissolve the staining material. The liquid cleaner or chemical will draw out the stain into the absorbent material. Poultice procedures may have to be repeated to thoroughly remove a stain, but some stains may never be completely removed.
The majority the removers used are for removing rust and stains, additionally, there are products that can be applied to efflorescence, water scale, decoloration, oil, silicone, and coking.
As ever, prevention is better than cure!
Stone Sealing
Sealing your stone tiles and/or grout helps prevent & reduce staining by providing a barrier against stain carrying substances. Sealing is the first important step towards protecting your investment against stains.
A sealer is a liquid, or carrier containing a resin that is applied to porous natural stone or porous man made surfaces such as concrete and ceramic tiles that helps prevent staining from water and/or oil based materials as well as help to achieve better results when cleaning your tiles.
You can easily test how porous your surfaces are by applying a drop of water to the surface and watching how it is absorbed. You can then see how any type of water based stain can be absorbed by the surface.
Tile Cleaners® use two main types of sealer to protect your surfaces. One sealer is known as an Impregnating Sealer(Penetrating Sealer) which is absorbed into the tile protecting it from within and the other is known as a Topical Sealer which sits on top of(coats) the tile.
Tile Cleaners® are proud to be accredited applicators of Deepshield™ quality deep impregnating water based sealers which prolong the life of your surfaces by taking full advantage of recent advancements in nano-technology and fluoro-bond technology. Australian made Deepshield™ forms a bond with your surfaces that is stronger than any conventional mechanical or hydrogen bonding film forming sealers.
