White vinegar, due to its acetic acid content, can cause significant damage to porous stone surfaces such as travertine, limestone, granite, and marble. Even if it remains on these surfaces briefly, its corrosive action can have adverse effects.
The acid in vinegar attacks the surface of the stone, potentially removing the protective sealant that preserves its color and protects against stains. Consequently, using vinegar on these surfaces can lead to progressive discoloration and dullness.
To preserve the integrity of your natural stone surfaces, it’s advisable to avoid using white vinegar as a cleaner. Instead, opt for cleaning products specifically formulated for natural stones, which will not damage their finish and aesthetic appearance.
