What is the best way to clean a natural stone patio with efflorescence?
To clean a natural stone patio with efflorescence, first dry brush or vacuum the white powdery substance. Do not use water, as it will temporarily dissolve the salts only for them to reappear. If efflorescence persists, it indicates an ongoing moisture issue, and it's best to consult with an installer or professional to identify and resolve the source of moisture.
