Find the Right Stone Care Product with Our New Product Finder
When it comes to caring for natural stone, choosing the right product is just as important as knowing how to use it.
Different types of stone can react differently to cleaning and treatment products, while problems such as black spots, algae, rust, cement residue, oil staining and general dirt can all require a different approach. Using the wrong treatment can be ineffective and in some cases, risk damaging the stone.
That is why we’re excited to introduce the Rob Parker’s Best Product Finder which is now live on our website. A simple tool designed to help you identify the most suitable product for your stone and the problem you are trying to solve.
Take the guesswork out of stone care
With so many specialist stone specialist stone cleaning, treatment and sealing products available, it is not always obvious which one you need.
Our new Product Finder guides you through a few straightforward questions about your surface and the issue you are experiencing. Based on your answers, it will recommend the Rob Parker’s Best product most suited to the job.
Once you receive your recommendation, we will also explain:
- Why it is suitable for your problem
- How to use it correctly
- Any important precautions you should be aware of
This is particularly important with natural stone, as materials such as sandstone, limestone, granite and slate have different characteristics and can require different methods of care.
Built from years of stone experience
Rob Parker’s Best was developed from more than 20 years of experience working with natural stone. Our range has been created to tackle the problems we regularly see affecting patios, paving, floors and other stone surfaces, from everyday weathering and algae through to more challenging stains.
For example, black spot can become embedded within porous paving and requires a different treatment from green algae.
Some stones, such as Kandla Grey Sandstone, can be particularly sensitive to acidic products, so care should be taken when choosing a cleaner or treatment. Using brick acid or an unsuitable acid-based cleaner can cause discolouration or contribute to rust staining. The Product Finder helps identify when these products should be avoided and can recommend a more suitable treatment for the stone, including specialist rust removers where required.
The Product Finder brings this knowledge together into a quick and easy tool, helping you make a more informed decision before applying anything to your stone.
