Darkening of limestone tiles |
Article Number: 879 | Rating: Unrated | Last Updated: Thu, Dec 6, 2007 at 12:00 AM |
Hi, I had some light coloured limestone (marbella) installed and the guys that did it used grey adhesive, instead of white, the result is a darkening dicoloration of the stone. Can anything be done?
Dear Glyn:
It's too early to tell.
It could be just a temporary discoloration due to the moisture that impregnates the stone, or it could be a permanent discoloration from the thin set. If it will not go back to normal within 2 or 3 weeks, then you will have to start getting concerned.
In the meantime, don't have any impregnator applied to your tiles, if you want them to dry fast.
May I ask you now to please read and e-sign our Statement of Purpose at:

Ciao and good luck,
Mauri
