How do you clean a marble shower or countertops?

[wenvel]

???Hello everyone ive been a member for a while and this is my first time posting something. I have read a learned from many of you and is nice to know that there's a place where you can get help because its hard to ask people that don't know about the job or that don't know what to tell you after you ask about a cleaning problem you might have. theres a lot of competition out there and we have to do our best to keep on going, well my ? is how do you clean a marbled shower/countertops? i have noticed that marble stains with anything and in the shower you can see stained water spots. its very hard to get them off cause marble is sensitive with any cleaner you use, i have tried soft scrub and it works to remove soap scum from the marble and other dirt in the shower but the water stains? how do you get rid of it?
i had a cust that ask why it looks like i didnt clean it and i do always but it doesnt look like it because the stains keep on accumulatin within the time.
hope to hear from some of you and good luck with your business

Maintaining and Cleaning Marble

Materials and Ingredients:

1/3 part fabric softener
2/3 parts water
Spray bottle
Soft cloth
Bucket of clean water (optional)
Micro-fiber cloth (optional) Clean Shield


Pour the mixture of fabric softener and water into a spray bottle.

Spray the solution onto the marble and wipe with a soft cloth and buff.
Tip: If you have a micro-fiber cloth, simply dip it into a bucket of water and wipe the solution until the marble is clean.

A Royal Suggestion: Use a product such as Clean Shield on your shower. It turns hard-to-clean surfaces into non-stick cookware. Apply with a soft cloth, let dry and buff with a clean cloth.

Hope it helps.
