Follow the manufacturer’s instructions closely for the best results, as dwell times and coverage vary between stone types and conditions.

What is the best thing to clean gravestones?

The best way to clean gravestones is to use a gentle, stone-safe cleaning solution specifically formulated for memorial stone. These products lift dirt, grime and years of biological staining without damaging delicate surfaces. Avoid bleach and acidic cleaners, which can erode lettering or weaken the stone. A soft brush and plenty of water help achieve a safe, even clean.

How do you make a gravestone look new again?

To make a gravestone look new again, start by removing surface dirt and biological staining with a stone-safe cleaner. These treatments help break down green stains and dark staining without harming the stone. Gently brushing and rinsing reveal the natural colour beneath. Consistent, careful maintenance helps preserve the fresh appearance once the stone has been restored.

How to clean stone ornaments?

Stone ornaments can be cleaned by applying a gentle cleaner formulated for natural stone and allowing it time to work before lightly washing the surface. This breaks down dirt, grime, and weathering without scratching or eroding the stone. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasives, as they can permanently damage fine details or textured finishes.

What removes black stains from stone ornaments?

Black stains on stone ornaments are often caused by organic staining and respond best to a stone-safe treatment designed to break down discolouration. These cleaners work deep into the pores of the stone to lift dark staining without harsh scrubbing. Using a purpose-made solution avoids the damage that acidic or bleach-based products can cause.

What’s the safest way to restore stone statues?

The safest way to restore stone statues is to use a non-acidic, stone-safe cleaner applied gently with minimal scrubbing.

Regular gentle cleaning helps maintain the restored finish.

Can I clean a gravestone without pressure washing?

Yes. Gravestones can be cleaned effectively without pressure washing by using a dedicated stone-cleaning solution that breaks down dirt, organic staining and discolouration. Gentle brushing and rinsing are usually enough to lift residues. This method is much safer for older or softer stones, which can be damaged by aggressive pressure water.

Does rain affect stone cleaner performance?

Light rain may dilute stone cleaner and reduce its effectiveness, so treatments generally work best in dry weather. The product needs time to dwell with staining and organic matter without being washed away. Choosing a calm, dry period ensures the cleaner adheres properly and delivers the full cleaning effect before rinsing.

Will stone cleaner remove black stains?

A good stone-safe cleaner can remove stubborn black staining, although stubborn patches may require more than one application. These treatments break down organic stains so it can be rinsed away without harsh scrubbing. Regular maintenance afterward helps prevent staining from returning and keeps the stone looking brighter for longer.

How do I brighten discoloured stonework?

Discoloured stonework can be brightened by using a non-acidic cleaner that lifts dirt, grime, and weathering deposits from the surface. Once the treatment has worked, gentle brushing reveals the stone’s original tone. Avoid bleach or acidic solutions, as they often worsen discolouration. Regular gentle cleaning helps maintain a brighter, more even appearance.
