How to clean marble vanity tops?

Marble vanity tops are easy to keep clean and gleaming with just a little bit of maintenance. The best way to clean a marble bathroom vanity is by getting into the habit of a daily wipe down and ensuring that any spills, especially of cosmetics or other harsh liquids, are cleaned up as soon as possible. When cleaning your vanity, always use a clean, soft cloth such as one made of microfibre. Using a spray bottle, combine some warm water (not hot) and a small amount of stone-friendly detergent. Harsh and acidic cleaning chemicals can cause irreparable damage, so make sure that your chosen soap is safe for marble stone. After spraying lightly and wiping down the marble, use a second clean cloth to dry the area and ensure there is no moisture left on the vanity top surface.

How to remove scratches from a marble vanity top?

The best way to remove scratches from your marble vanity top is to have it treated and resealed by professionals. There is, however, a do-it-yourself solution for those interested. Firstly, make sure the area is cleaned and dirt free. Then sand and ‘roughen’ up the marble surface. Make sure you don’t sand it too hard as this can cause extensive damage. Once done, clean away the dust from the sanding and polish the surface with the scratches using a marble polishing powder, buffing pad and a high speed buffer. Lightly rub some marble-friendly compound onto the area with a clean cloth and then buff the area again.
