Care and Maintenance
DO NOT SAND OR USE ABRASIVE MATERIALS ON PRODUCTS
Precast products are sealed with a high quality concrete sealer prior to shipment or installation. The product can still be stained as it is a natural porous product. Please review the following guidelines to keeping your mantel in pristine condition.
Consistently and regularly vacuum for dust. Immediately wipe up any spills. For a deeper clean, use a diluted floor cleaning solution, making sure to always use a white cloth. We have been told Magic Eraser works well, as do Scotch Brite pads for tougher areas. A last resort option is using clear acetone. Make sure to ONLY use a damp white cloth without any dye or pigment, as this can bleed into the precast material and permanently alter the color as well as strip finish. Make sure the rag is damp and use long strokes so that the finish stays as consistent as possible.
If in a high traffic area or is an exterior application, we recommend resealing the product once a year with a high quality concrete sealer. Prior to application, make sure all surfaces have been thoroughly cleaned and prepared.
