Product Recommendation for Routine Cleaning of Natural Stone Shower

Q. We have a new home with black limestone in the master bathroom shower. I am looking to make a DIY cleaner for routine cleaning of the stone. Do you have a recipe or suggestion of products to use to make the cleaner?

A. DIY cleaners can be problematic for natural stone, as certain ingredients, for example, vinegar, can cause acid etch damage. Dyes in cleaners may cause staining. Your safest solution would be to purchase any pH-neutral cleaner that is specifically marked safe for natural stone. We recommend in your case, that a neutral cleaner ready-to-use spray would be ideal.
