How to Repair Stone & Granite

    • 1). Purchase a prepared repair epoxy that is a color very close to your stone or granite. Open the epoxy and pierce the foil seal over the opening.

    • 2). Push the opening of the tube into cracks and squeeze out the epoxy until it rises out of the space just a little. Cover larger damaged areas with epoxy and build the layers up evenly with the surrounding stone.

    • 3). Drag the flat of a rounded putty knife over the surface of cracks to smooth and flatten the epoxy against the stone or granite. Shape the epoxy over larger damaged areas with the putty knife so that it mimics the shape of the masonry.

    • 4). Let the epoxy dry completely. Do not try to wipe away excess epoxy while it is damp, as this may weaken the finish. Chip superfluous epoxy away gently from the surface of the granite or stone with the putty knife or lightly sand it away with extremely fine-grit sandpaper.
