Extended Product Information
FAQs
What types of stone is Lithofin MN Polish suitable for?
Lithofin MN Polish is designed for polished natural stones, including marble, granite, and travertine. It can also be used on some polished engineered stone surfaces. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
How often should I use Lithofin MN Polish?
The frequency of application depends on the stone's usage and cleaning routine. For high-traffic areas like kitchen countertops, you might need to reapply every few weeks to maintain the shine. For less-used areas, monthly or bi-monthly applications may suffice.
Can I use Lithofin MN Polish on a matte finish stone?
No, Lithofin MN Polish is specifically formulated for polished surfaces. It will not enhance or protect matte, honed, or unpolished finishes and may lead to an undesirable appearance.
Does this product seal the stone against stains?
Lithofin MN Polish provides a degree of protection by forming a surface layer that helps repel minor spills and reduces the visibility of fine scratches. However, it is not a deep impregnating sealer and should not be relied upon for significant stain protection on porous stones. For deep stain protection, consider a dedicated stone sealer.
Do I need any special equipment to apply this polish?
No, Lithofin MN Polish is designed for easy application by hand using a soft cloth or applicator pad. A buffing machine can be used for larger areas or to achieve a higher gloss, but it is not required.
How much area does one bottle cover?
One 150ml bottle of Lithofin MN Polish typically covers approximately 20-40 square meters, depending on the absorbency of the stone and the thinness of the application.
What is the shelf life of Lithofin MN Polish?
When stored properly in its original container in a cool, dry place, Lithofin MN Polish generally has a good shelf life. However, for optimal performance, it is best to use it within a reasonable timeframe after purchase.
Troubleshooting
Surface appears streaky or uneven after application.
This can happen if the polish was applied too thickly or not buffed sufficiently. Ensure an even, thin layer is applied and buff thoroughly until a uniform shine is achieved. For severe streaking, you may need to remove the polish with a suitable stone cleaner and reapply.
No significant shine or color enhancement is visible.
The stone surface may not have been properly prepared, or the product may be old. Ensure the stone is clean and dry. For best results, reapply a thin layer and buff vigorously. If the product has been stored for a very long time, its effectiveness may be reduced.
The product seems difficult to buff to a shine.
This could be due to applying the product too heavily or allowing it to dry for too long. Apply a thinner coat and buff as it begins to haze, rather than waiting until it's fully dry. If it has dried too much, a light mist of water may help during buffing.
The low-odor claim seems inaccurate; there is a noticeable smell.
While the product is low-odor compared to solvent-heavy alternatives, some scent from the natural waxes and minimal solvents is still present. Ensure good ventilation during application, especially if you are sensitive to odors.
