How do you repair chips or scratches on marble outdoor chairs?
Marble outdoor chairs add elegance to any space, but chips and scratches can diminish their beauty. Here’s how to repair them:
1. Clean the Surface: Use a mild soap and water solution to remove dirt and debris from the affected area. Dry thoroughly.
2. Assess the Damage: For shallow scratches, polishing may suffice. Deeper chips require filling with epoxy or marble repair kits.
3. Polish Minor Scratches: Apply a marble polishing compound with a soft cloth, buffing in circular motions until the scratch fades.
4. Fill Chips: Mix epoxy or a marble repair paste to match the chair’s color. Fill the chip, smooth with a putty knife, and let it cure.
5. Sand and Seal: Once dry, lightly sand the repaired area with fine-grit sandpaper. Apply a marble sealer to protect against future damage.
Regular maintenance and prompt repairs will keep your marble chairs looking pristine for years.
