How are the granite marble different? Is the quarterbath the best?

Natural stones are one of the home decor materials that are considered quite expensive. Whether marble, granite or quarter Therefore, before the stone is used in the decoration Therefore it is necessary to know the information of each type of stone, including patterns, strength and strength, suitable for where What are the advantages? And stone care So that we can use the stone correctly, appropriately and to be beautiful and worth the most

Origin And the main mineral of marble, granite, rock quarter

Marble is one of the rocks in the variable stone. Which has been transformed from limestone and dolomite stone Caused by the pressure and heat from under the earth's crust that causes the rock to transform into marble. Will be a crystal stone Quite rough Consisting of calcium mineral If it is pure marble, it will be white. But if there are other minerals mixed with, there will be a variety of colors

Granite is one of the Akani stones. Complications Caused by the cool viscous stone slow down inside the Earth's crust. Makes the mineral crystal large and has a coarse space Consisting of minerals

Fold Spa and quartz mineral Resulting in quite high strength Which will be opaque from Fold Spa Clear gray from quartz mineral And black from Horn Blend

Quarter Is another rock in the variable stone Which is mainly transformed from sandstone Caused by the pressure and heat from under the earth's crust that causes the rock to transform into a quarter. Which is one of the most durable stones Consisting of quartz mineral Therefore has high strength If caused by a pure glass of sand, the quarter site will be white to gray. But there are often other minerals, causing other stones to have different colors according to the mineral types in the stone.

pattern

Marble Will have a pattern that is not parallel Because it is a rock that is classified as a variable stone that has been transformed Caused by the mag that inserted up to experience the stone in that area Heat and substance from magma, so the rocks in that area are arranged in a new mineral. Transformed into marble or quarter Depending on the original mineral of that type of stone 

Granite has patterns, minerals, minerals and stone are consistent. The mineral crystal will have a strong adhesion. Causing the stone texture to be tight and hard For granite found in Thailand, it is usually a granite with patterns. Or a mineral scales spread all over the stone without a line of lines But in foreign countries, some granite stone scales are arranged in lines. Came out to be similar to the mineral pattern of marble But there is still a mineral scales Not smooth like marble and quarter

Strongness

• The marble is the stone that has the least strength. Because it was caused by calcium carbonate Or limestone mainly There will be only the hardness of Mos. The level is only 3, it is not very hard because the person's nails are hard to 2.5, or the penny coin has a hardness of 3.5, which can make the front of the stone scratched if there is no stone coating.
  ‍
• Granite is quite strong. Because it consists of Fold Spa The hardness of the Moss is at the level of 6 and quartz mineral, which has the strength of Moss at the 7 level. Overall, the granite has a hardness at 6-6.5 depending on the amount of minerals that are components. Which is stronger than a kitchen knife, which has a hardness value of 5.5, therefore suitable for making a kitchen top Because it will be more difficult
  ‍
• Quarter Will be the stone that is the strongest in all 3 types of stones because it is mainly quartz mineral Resulting in the strength of the moss at the 7th level, which is stronger than the steel nails that are stiff at 6.5 levels, so it is suitable for decorating various points Whether it is a small use of TV walls Or heavy use points such as top kitchens

The advantages of each rock

The advantages of the main natural stone are in terms of truly natural patterns. Each stone that is taken out will have different patterns. Because natural patterns will be moved continuously according to the mineral conditions on the mountains Resulting in uniqueness in each sheet

And these 3 types of stones can still keep the cold well Durable, can be used for a long time for 100 years. If receiving the correct care

marble

- There will be advantages in which the patterns are beautiful, delicate, and has a variety of colors. A variety of tones can be chosen to match the house in almost every style.

Granite

- There will be advantages that are highly strong. Not scratched easily, able to withstand acid, resistant to a certain extent And still endure the heat very well, but still do not recommend placing hot items such as placing the pan directly onto the stone In addition, the coldness can be collected in the stone, but it may not be as marble.

Quarter

- Will combine the advantages of both marble And granite together Is that there are beautiful patterns, delicate and very high strength, not easy to scratch Durable, heat and weather

If you ask if the quarterbone is the best or not We would have to answer that yes. In terms of benefits that will be received from the quarter site that is both beautiful and strong But may have to exchange with the price that is quite higher than marble and granite, but it is worth it Worth the price of various features.

Where is each stone suitable for installation?

As for the installation Due to the unequal hardness in each stone Allowing Bang Hin to be installed only in some areas

Marble - can be installed in the area, not very heavy, such as top walls, tops, guava kitchens, stairs or areas that are not very traffic, furniture and decorations, which can be solved by this weakness by coating the stone. Will make the stone face more difficult And can scrub the new coated to remove the marks as well But still not as strong as the granite and quarter site

Granite and quarterd stone - due to the hardness of the 6-7 levels, these 2 types of stone are more durable than marble. Therefore can be installed in various places more variety In addition to being installed like marble Can also be installed as a Thai kitchen top that has heavy use Internal and exterior floor Or can be used to cover the swimming pool Especially the quarter stone that is resistant to the weather

But if it is best to be installed, should have a stone coating Or coating various waterproofing so that the stone is more durable And also helps the water to not seep through the hole Until causing stains on the stone as well

Care

Each rock has similar maintenance but may vary according to the hardness of the stone. If the stone is very hard, it does not have to take care of as often as a stone that is less hard.

• Due to the nature of the stone Most of them are porous, which allows various water to penetrate into the stone. Therefore, when doing something six on the stone Recommend to quickly wipe off In order not to make the stone a stain

• There is a regular wiping of the stone. May be 1-2 weeks at a time. By using dishwashing liquid or soap mixed with water in a very intense ratio, wiping the stone face And wipe dry Or use a specific solution for stone cleaning And may sometimes use the dust pressure to keep the stone always look new

• There should be a new stone coating when the coating began to deteriorate. In order to prevent marks and stains, the marble needs to be coated a little because the stone is not very hard and the coating is deteriorating easier. The granite and quarter stone may be coated for the first time before the installation once or maybe a long time.
• If the stone face is scratched, we can scrub to remove the marks. Which can be done by yourself Or can hire a specialist technician But we recommend hiring a specialist technician. Because marble has a specific tool and solution for stone management
• For tea, coffee, wine, can use 1 hydrogen peroxide with 4 clean water, wipe clean until the stain disappears.
