Tips for natural stone aftercare
Travertine is a hard and durable stone, yet for an extended lifetime you should keep in mind 3 steps: cleaning, sealing and aftercare
Clean the surface before sealing with LTP Grimex, available in our product range (approximately 1 L = 40-50 sqm)
We recommend sealing the surface with LTP Mattstone, a solution suitable for both interior and exterior. This procedure offers everyday protection against water drops, dust and difficult stains. This procedure seals the micro pores, preventing the water penetration of into the surface, so the stone will not stain so easily
For enhancing the color and highlight the natural stone beauty, we recommend LTP Color Intensifier
For cleaning and aftercare following the installation you can use LTP Waxwash cleaner that will not influence the sealed surface (1L = 700 sqm)
For difficult stains, use LTP Power Stripper and for dust stains use LTP Grout Stain Remover (1L = 30-40 sqm)
