Be sure to remove all dust and dirt first. You can utilize a dust mop to remove dirt and dust. Observe your floor and assess how many times you need to dust mop every week. So, regular dust mopping must be done to keep your stone floors from dust, scratches and any possible damage.

A sealer is applied next to your floor. You need to apply a silicon-based sealer or Impregnator to maintain the color and shine of your stone floor. This sealer application is an option that you can opt to not do but it is a step that will lengthen the shine and color of your stone floor.

Afterwards, apply a neutral cleanser that has pH of around 7 which is mixed with clean water. Use those natural solutions in mopping the stone floor until the entire surface is applied with the mixture and rinse with water.

And lastly, you must polish your stone floors using a professional stone floor machine. Before you buffer your floor, you need to apply polishing powder using a hog’s hair pad. If the entire floor is applied with powder, you may begin polishing it. The use of this cleaning method is to make your floors look shiny. Polishing floors can be done twice a year as to maintain the shine of your stone floor.
