*Please note that the video also shows a final stage of polishing. We have bluestone polishing combos available if you would like to add a natural-look polish finish to your bluestone. However as this combo is for cleaning and sealing your bluestone, just ignore the final part of the video and repeat stage 2 (application of a sealer) instead.

Instructions:
Stage 1 – cleaning bluestone with Deterdek
You will need gloves, a bucket, a stiff broom and clean rag, and a mop and bucket.
Pre-wet the surface with water, and use the broom to spread it evenly.
Dilute Deterdek 1:5 in water.
Spread the diluted Deterdek over a few metres of the surface at a time, wait 2-3 minutes, and then agitate with the broom.
Wipe up the residue with a clean rag or mop.
Rinse with plenty of water.
* Do not use on acid-sensitive surfaces
* Test a small area first to verify acid resistance
Stage 2 – sealing bluestone for stain protection with FilaFOB
You will need a paintbrush and bowl.
Make sure the surface is clean and dry.
Use the paintbrush to apply a coat of FilaFOB to the surface, ensuring it is well-soaked and evenly covered.
Wait 24 hours before repeating stage 2 to apply a second coat of sealer
* Test the product on a small area first to check for any colour changes.
How to Clean Bluestone on an ongoing basis
Use a 1:200 dilution of FilaCleaner for regular cleaning, or a dilution of 1:30 when a more intensive clean is necessary.
For spot stain removal, use Fila NoSpot for oily, greasy stains or FilaSR95 for organic (food-based) stains.
