Marble Murti Care & Maintenance
Keep your Makrana marble murti pristine for centuries — daily dusting, weekly cleaning, monthly soap rinse, and annual polish. Plus stain removal for oil, kumkum, and water rings.
How to Care for a Marble Murti
Authentic Makrana marble murtis are durable for centuries when cared for correctly. Daily maintenance is simple — soft dry cloth and seasonal deep cleaning preserve the white sheen and prevent staining from oil lamps, kumkum, and water-based offerings.
Daily & Weekly Care Routine
| Frequency | Action | Tools |
|---|---|---|
| Daily | Dust with dry microfiber cloth | Soft microfiber cloth only |
| After abhishek | Pat dry immediately | Cotton cloth, no soap |
| Weekly | Wipe with damp cloth + dry | Distilled water, microfiber |
| Monthly | Mild pH-neutral soap rinse | Diluted neutral soap, soft brush |
| Yearly (Diwali) | Deep clean + re-polish if needed | Marble polish, soft cotton |
What to Avoid
- Never use vinegar, lemon, or acidic cleaners — they etch Makrana marble permanently.
- Avoid bleach, ammonia, or harsh chemicals — they damage polish and discolour stone.
- Don't place hot diyas directly on the murti — heat marks are difficult to remove.
- Don't drag the idol — lift from the base only; never carry by limbs or attributes.
- Skip abrasive scrubbers — steel wool and rough sponges scratch the polished surface.
Removing Common Stains
Oil & Ghee
Sprinkle cornstarch, leave 24 hours, brush off, wipe with mild soap. Repeat if needed.
Kumkum & Haldi
Hydrogen peroxide 3% on cotton, dab gently, rinse with distilled water immediately.
Water Rings
Buff with dry microfiber. For deeper rings, use marble polishing powder per manufacturer instructions.
Yellowing
Annual professional polish restores white sheen. Available via Marble Moortis Jaipur workshop.
