Preparing Stone Surfaces
Stoneworld takes no shortcuts when it comes to prepping stone—whether for the workshop or customers. Their team relies on Rob Parker’s Best for a thorough and refined cleaning process that tackles algae, rust, stubborn dirt, and ingrained grime without damaging the natural stone.
This preparation is not just about aesthetics—it ensures each piece is clean, healthy, and ready for sealing, installation, or custom cutting. The products are specifically formulated to preserve the stone’s natural look while stripping away visual distractions.
Why Preparation Matters
- Removes biological growth like algae and lichen
- Eliminates rust stains and embedded dirt
- Ensures uniform absorption of sealers later
Ensuring Longevity
Once a stone surface is meticulously cleaned, Stoneworld uses Rob Parker’s Best sealers—especially on worktops destined for customer homes. These sealants are formulated to penetrate deeply, offering protection against staining, wear, and daily household use—all while preserving the stone’s finish.
This thoughtful sealing process isn’t just protective—it’s a proactive step towards helping customers enjoy their stone for years with minimal upkeep.
Sealing Insight: Deep-penetrating sealant = surface protection without altering texture or colour.
