Troubleshooting
Limescale on marble (white crusty deposits)
DO NOT use acid-based limescale removers! Use Lithofin MN Power-Clean (alkaline) with gentle scrubbing. For heavy deposits, use a plastic scraper carefully. Prevention (squeegee after showering) is essential.
Mould in grout lines
Lithofin KF Mildew-Away - test on a small area first. Spray on grout only, leave 15 min, scrub, rinse. Improve ventilation to prevent recurrence.
Soap scum build-up
Lithofin MN Power-Clean undiluted on stubborn areas. Scrub with sponge, rinse well.
Dulling of polished marble floor
Lithofin MN Polish Liquid applied with a cloth or machine. Buff to restore shine.
