Limestone Cleaning
We began by deeply cleaning the limestone surface to remove grime, soap scum, and any residues that could affect the honing and polishing process. This step ensures the limestone is free of surface contaminants, laying a solid foundation for effective restoration.
Honing to Remove Stains and Etching
Next, we used honing techniques to address the deep stains and etching that had accumulated over time. Honing removes a fine layer of limestone, restoring the surface’s smoothness and erasing minor scratches, preparing it for a refined polish.
Polishing for Enhanced Shine
After honing, we polished the limestone to achieve a smooth, semi-gloss finish that enhances its natural beauty. Polishing brings out the depth and character of the stone, while also making it easier to clean and maintain over time.
Limestone Sealing
To complete the restoration, we applied a high-quality limestone sealant. This step is essential to protect the limestone from future staining and etching, especially in a moisture-prone area like a shower. Sealing provides a durable layer that repels water and minimizes maintenance.
