Common mistakes
- Using vinegar or low-pH DIY mixes on marble, granite, or other acid-sensitive stone without a label-backed plan.
- Reaching for dish soap or neutral cleaners when the soil is mineral scale—surfactants often move the problem, not remove it.
- Spraying disinfectant on dirty surfaces: organic film can shield microbes; clean first unless the label says otherwise.
- Mixing bleach with ammonia, acids, or unknown products—toxic gas risk and unpredictable chemistry.
