The Application of Limestone
Limestone is a raw material that is used globally in a variety of different ways including construction, agriculture, and industrial materials. Limestone is very common in architecture, especially in Europe and North America. Many landmarks across the world, including the Great Pyramid and its associated complex in Giza, Egypt, were made of limestone. So many buildings in Kingston, Ontario, Canada were, and continue to be, constructed from it that it is nicknamed the 'Limestone City'. Limestone, metamorphosed by heat and pressure produces marble, which has been used for many statues, buildings, and stone tabletops. On the island of Malta, a variety of limestone called Globigerina limestone was, for a long time, the only building material available, and is still very frequently used on all types of buildings and sculptures.
Tips of Clean Limestone Surface
Having Jura Beige limestone tops in my living room. The kitchen countertops constantly set coffee cups and cocktails on them. They also etch frequently. The nice thing about limestone is that regular cleaning creates a shine on the surface through long-term abrasion.

If a stronger effect is needed, then you can increase the ratio on the vinegar side until you get what you are looking for.
It is true that left unattended for long enough, vinegar will break down the limestone. Muriatic acid will do it faster. We used to ¡°Antique¡± marbles and limestones with this. Do not do this indoors. It is a dangerous process and several safety precautions must be taken during and around this process. Sealers typically do not prevent the chemical reactions between the alkaline stone and the acidic compounds that they may come into contact with. I still find them useful, just not bulletproof.
