Professional advice and the right Lithofin products for your cement tiles
MediumLimescale (calcium carbonate deposits) forms when hard water evaporates and leaves behind dissolved minerals. It appears as white, grey, or yellow hard crusty deposits, particularly around taps, shower heads, on glass panels, and on stone surfaces in wet areas. Limescale is extremely hard (similar hardness to marble itself) and bonds firmly to surfaces.
