what does cleaning & sealing natural stone do?
Sealing natural stone helps protect it from stains, dirt, and damage by creating a protective semi permeable layer throughout the stone. Premium sealers contain high quality active ingredients, delivering complete coverage of the gaps in the stone to provide better stain resistance, regardless of porosity and density. Dense stones need smaller sealer molecules to fit into the smaller pores in the surface. Penetrating, water-based sealers offer excellent protection for stone with water as the carrier.
