This is my stoop which shows a lot of the grout haze. It also shows a re-sandblasted test sample and how much darker it got. The stoop stones are good example of the original look

This picture has a little bit of everything in it. 1) upper right you can see some stones that are closer to original 2) on many stones we have this browning effect - not sure what this is but hasn’t come up since being professional cleaned. 3) in the middle you can see some power washing...

Hey guys, It’s been a while but I’m still trying to resolve my messed up patio. Upon cleaning up the Mason damaged the sandblasted marble stone by power washing it with pressure nozzles. It stripped the finish and left swirls on many stones. I’ve attempted to try multiple different...
