Cleaning Terazzo
Dear Aunt Daisy, My husband makes Terazzo sink-tops and he says they should be cleaned with a soft cloth dipped in turpentine. Rub well to remove all surface dust and soap suds, which are very harmful to the bench. Afterwards use beeswax and turpentine, blended to a soft’ mixture, and rub on as if polishing a floor. Milk, lemon juice, soap and acid substances are all very harmful to Terazzo tops. as they eat away the cement if they are | continually left on the bench.
