dolomite characteristics
Dolomite is part of the marble family of natural stones and is slightly harder compared to marble. It comes in shades of white, but predominantly in gray. Dolomite forms when limestone interacts with magnesium and water, undergoing a chemical reaction under specific pressure. Like marble, it is still prone to staining and etching, requiring occasional sealing.

dolomite cons
Limited Color Options
Dolomite is available in a range of colors and patterns, but the selection may be more limited compared to other natural stones.
Softer Than Quartz & Granite
While dolomite is durable, it is not as scratch-resistant as granite or quartz. Care must be taken to avoid scratching the surface with sharp objects.
Susceptibility to Etching
Dolomite is susceptible to etching from acidic substances like lemon juice, vinegar, and wine. This can result in dull spots or marks on the surface.

care & maintenance for dolomite
Regular Sealing (Twice a Year)
Dolomite is porous and can be prone to staining if not properly sealed. It's essential to regularly seal the surface with a high-quality stone sealer to protect against moisture and spills.
Gentle Cleaning
Avoid harsh or abrasive cleaners on dolomite surfaces, as they can damage the stone's finish. Instead, use a mild detergent or a cleaner specifically formulated for stone, along with a soft cloth or sponge, to clean up spills and everyday messes.
Avoiding Acidic Substances
Dolomite is sensitive to acidic substances like citrus juices, vinegar, and wine, which can etch or dull the surface. Be mindful of what comes into contact with dolomite and promptly clean up any acidic spills to prevent damage.
