Protect Your Investment with our range of DuPont™ StoneTech® products

Choosing natural stone is an investment and in order to protect your stone investment simple steps can be taken to ensure your stone will continue to look good in years to come.

The best way to prevent stains on stone is to treat it with a protective sealer. Different stone types require different grades of sealer depending on the context of your stone application and how you want your stone to appear.

Once your stone is sealed then clean up is a snap, however natural stone demands a cleaner specifically suited to the unique mineral composition of the stone. General cleaners not formulated for natural stone can break down the sealer, making the stone susceptible to stains. Rural Stone recommends DuPont™ StoneTech Professional® Cleaners to clean your stone.

DuPont™ StoneTech Professional® Sealers

People often assume that natural stone is "stain-proof," however all stone is porous to some degree - even densely crystalline granite. If not properly treated with a protective sealer, water, oils or other liquids can easily penetrate the stone, leaving behind unwanted stains. The good news is that once treated with a protective sealer, natural stone is ready for carefree, everyday use. Rural Stone recommends DuPont™ StoneTech Professional® Sealers to protect your stone.
