How to Clean and Care for Marble

Summary: Marble isn't as tough as you may think; it's a comparatively soft stone that is easily scratched and marred. Chances are you paid a lot for it, so keep it clean and take good care of it. To keep your marble looking new follow the advice in the steps below.
Step 1Wipe down marble surfaces with a damp rag and buff dry with a chamois for routine weekly cleaning.
Step 2Use a neutral, non abrasive cleaner (such as acetone, hydrogen peroxide or clear ammonia) for tough stains.
Step 3Apply the cleaner with a cloth and buff dry.
Step 4After cleaning, polish marble surfaces using a marble polish containing tin oxide.
Step 5Protect marble floors with a stone sealer, and use standard non abrasive floor cleaners to clean them.
Step 6Place coasters under glasses and put plastic under cosmetics on marble surfaces. Use rugs to cover marble floors.
Step 7Refer scratches of any depth to a professional.
