Maintenance Informations

1. Assess the Condition: Before proceeding with any cleaning, carefully assess the condition of the gravestone. If the stone is fragile, eroded, or shows signs of deterioration, it is best to seek professional advice or assistance to avoid causing further damage.

2. Use Soft Tools: Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals that can damage the stone's surface. Instead, opt for soft tools such as natural bristle brushes, soft cloths, or sponges.

3. Test Cleaning Solutions: Test any cleaning solution on a small, inconspicuous area of the gravestone before applying it to the entire surface. This helps ensure that the solution does not cause discoloration, etching, or other damage. Use a mild, pH-neutral cleaning solution specifically formulated for stone or a mixture of non-ionic detergent and water.

4. Gentle Cleaning Technique: Gently apply the cleaning solution to the gravestone using a soft brush or cloth. Use light pressure and circular motions to avoid scrubbing vigorously, as this can potentially scratch or remove the stone's surface.

5. Remove Biological Growth: If the gravestone has moss, algae, or other biological growth, use a soft brush or cloth to gently remove it. Take care not to force or scrape the growth aggressively, as it can cause damage. For persistent growth, consider using a biocide specifically designed for use on stone surfaces, following the manufacturer's instructions.

6. Rinse Thoroughly: After cleaning, rinse the gravestone thoroughly with clean water to remove any residue or cleaning solution. Use a soft brush or cloth to ensure all traces are removed.

7. Allow for Drying Time: Allow the gravestone to air dry naturally. Avoid using excessive heat or forced drying methods as they can cause stress to the stone.

8. Regular Maintenance: Regularly monitor the gravestone for signs of dirt, staining, or biological growth. Promptly address any issues to prevent them from becoming more difficult to clean or causing long-term damage.
