Natural stone products are porous and yet durable if properly installed, cared for & maintained. Elon recommends sealing all natural stone products before & after grouting with a quality impregnating sealer. Sealer should be re-applied periodically throughout time. Only pH neutral cleaners specifically designed for stone should be applied to stone surfaces. Avoid abrasive or acidic cleaners. Wipe up spills promptly to prevent staining. Follow these instructions to keep your natural stone tiles looking their best.

For all cleaners and sealers always do a test area first and follow manufactures instructions and limitations.
