• Use a mild tile cleaner specifically designed for cleaning natural stone. Avoid harsh cleaners that contain acids as they can etch and ruin the face of the tile.

• For weekly deep cleaning, clean with warm water and a gentle cleaner using a microfiber mop. Always dry the surface with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.

• Clean up the spills and stains promptly with a soft, damp cloth.
