Taking centre stage on walls and floors, marble has many key qualities: it is <strong>versatile and easy<\/strong> to clean, for instance.

Thinking that it doesn\u2019t need any care would instead be an unforgivable mistake. A marble floor is durable, but to preserve it as best as possible, it needs to be cleaned with the utmost care by following a few simple rules to protect it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1102\" src=\"http:\/\/mag.santa-margherita.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Sm_box-articoli_pavimenti-mimosa_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1067\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Watchword: <strong>gentleness<\/strong>.<\/h4>\n<h4>First step: demand the best for your marble floor. Only choose products that do not penetrate under the surface, ban any hyper-aggressive detergents and the whole range of abrasives: it would be tantamount to a declaration of war for a marble floor. And what we want is to make a <strong>declaration of love<\/strong>.<\/h4>\n<p>Protecting the kitchen.<\/p>\n<p>Marble floor in the kitchen? No problem: it is perfectly resistant to contact with water, though pay the utmost attention to <strong>acid liquids<\/strong> such as vinegar, lemon juice or sugary drinks. Regardless of how stubborn the stains are, on a marble floor the important thing is to act straight away and not to put off cleaning. The stain disappears with a soft cloth slightly dampened in lukewarm water, and unless it is a particularly complex situation, your marble floor will be as good as new. Right after cleaning the marble surface, it is crucial to use a dry cloth to dab the water. In a single step, you\u2019ll remove the dirt and the liquid.<\/p>\n<p>Desperate circumstances call for desperate remedies.<\/p>\n<p>A marble floor is resistant, but not indestructible. If the stain is stubborn, encrusted and deep, you should make a final decision to solve it and opt for a <strong>slightly abrasive<\/strong> product.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1101\" src=\"http:\/\/mag.santa-margherita.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Sm_box-articoli_pavimenti-mimosa_3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1067\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The market offers products with proven effectiveness: on a marble floor with stains or yellowing, it\u2019s best to play it safe and rely on top brands in the sector.
