biggest offenders for this

Regular Cleaning:

● Avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals for cleaning
● Never use ammonia, steel wool or abrasive scrubbers on natural stone
Treating Scratches And Stains:
● When any substance is spilled on the natural stone, blot it up immediately if possible
● After blotting the spill, rinse the area several times with warm water
