Can I use Bathroom & Shower Cleaner on marble or natural stone?Updated 13 days ago

Generally yes on sealed marble, granite, travertine, limestone, and engineered stone when used as directed. Bathroom & Shower Cleaner is mildly alkaline (pH ~8) and non-abrasive, which is gentler than acidic cleaners (vinegar, lime removers, descalers) that actively etch calcium-based stone. Spot test first every time, keep dwell time short, and rinse thoroughly. Sealants and stone porosity vary so caution always applies.

Skip Bathroom & Shower Cleaner on unsealed or porous stone, old or worn sealants (typically 5+ years without re-sealing), honed or matte finishes where any residue is visible, and stone you're not sure about the history of. For heritage stone or expensive countertops, ask the stonemason or supplier for their approved care products. Use a dedicated stone-safe cleaner or plain water on a microfibre when in doubt.

Pick an inconspicuous area (corner of a tile, under a basin lip, edge of a benchtop). Spray Bathroom & Shower Cleaner, wait 60 seconds (no longer), rub gently with a soft microfibre, rinse with water, dry with a clean cloth. Check closely for dulling, discolouration, etching, or texture change. Check again after 24 hours. If the test patch still looks identical, you're clear.

Once you've spot-tested and confirmed it's safe, spray Bathroom & Shower Cleaner onto a soft microfibre (not directly onto the stone), wipe gently, rinse with a clean damp cloth, and dry immediately with a soft dry cloth. Don't let moisture sit on stone or pool in grout lines. For weekly maintenance on sealed shower walls, a quick spray and rinse is fine. Apply to the cloth rather than the surface for benchtops and honed finishes.
