Lobby and vanity stone takes a different kind of beating than a dining room or spa. Luggage cart wheels and hard-soled shoes grind grit into polished floors at the entrance. Front desk counters absorb spilled coffee, hand sanitizer, and pen ink from check-in transactions dozens of times a day. Bathroom vanities face acidic cleaning sprays and bleach-based disinfectants applied multiple times per shift by housekeeping staff working on a schedule, not a stone-care schedule. Natural stone is porous, and each of these exposures opens the door to etching, staining, and surface breakdown that no amount of polishing fully reverses.
Most properties respond with wax coatings or topical sealers that require ongoing care. RAKU is designed as a nanocoating that bonds with the stone's surface. A trained professional should confirm preparation, curing, cleaning, heat, food-contact suitability, maintenance, and current coverage terms; ordinary precautions remain important.
RAKU is available for hospitality properties subject to material assessment and professional application. Ask for current suitability, care, and coverage details for your stone.
Your lobby stone is the first impression every guest forms before they reach the front desk. Request a consultation with Marble Armour to assess the stone, confirm suitability and care requirements, and plan application around your venue's schedule.
