Stone & Marble Benchtop Protection
Mirror Image Marble use the Clearstone protective coating systems for protecting marble benchtops, vanities, tables and bars etc.
Clearstone is a protective coating that can help to protect your marble benchtop from damage and staining. When applied to the surface of the marble, it forms a hard, clear barrier that helps to prevent spills, stains, and other substances from penetrating the surface. This can help to extend the life of your marble benchtop and keep it looking beautiful for years to come.
Clearstone is often used in high-traffic areas, such as kitchen countertops, where the risk of damage and staining is high.

To get the most protection from Clearstone, it’s best to have it applied by a professional who has experience with this type of product. The professional will typically clean and prepare the surface of the marble, then apply the Clearstone according to the manufacturer’s instructions. After the Clearstone has dried, the surface of the marble will be protected and ready for use.
Overall, Clearstone can be a great option for those looking to protect their marble benchtop from damage and staining. By forming a barrier over the surface of the marble, it helps to keep the marble looking beautiful and in good condition for years to come.
