Can Croatia's Creme Shell Limestone be used exterior applications in very dusty climates?
Croatias Creme Shell Limestone can generally be used in exterior applications even in dusty climates. However, it is important to consider a few factors before making a decision. 1. Porosity: Limestone is a natural stone that is porous, which means it can absorb moisture and dust. In very dusty climates, the limestone may accumulate dust more quickly, requiring regular cleaning and maintenance. 2. Finishing: The finishing applied to the limestone can also affect its performance in dusty climates. A polished or honed finish may be more prone to showing dust accumulation compared to a tumbled or brushed finish, which can help mask the dust. 3. Sealing and maintenance: Applying a suitable sealer to the limestone can help reduce its porosity and make it more resistant to dust absorption. Regular cleaning and maintenance, such as dusting or pressure washing, may also be necessary to keep it looking its best in dusty conditions. It is recommended to consult with a professional installer or supplier who can provide specific guidance based on your location and climate to ensure optimal performance of the Creme Shell Limestone in exterior applications.
