Usage examples
If there are cracks in the finished tombstone or tabletop.
We recommend Akepox 1005 for hairline cracks. If there are a lot of cracks, it is recommended that the stone be heated (60 °C) before using the glue, so that the glue goes deeper and the stone can then be sanded after 3 hours.
For larger cracks and holes, use Akepox 5000 series or Everclear 500 series.
If there is a chip in the finished tombstone or tabletop.
We recommend using Everclear 300/510, AKEPOX 5010 or Akelux repair kit. Indoors, you can also use Platinum P+ glue. These can be used to make a translucent patch if desired, or if you want the patch to match the tone of the stone, you can mix a suitable dye into the glue. If you also mix small amounts of stone grit/powder of the stone in question into the glue, the patch will hardly be noticeable.

The metal should be attached to the stone with a pin attachment.
Akepox 3000 is the solution if you want the metal to be removable at some point (it softens when heated) or if the glue needs to dry quickly.
If you want the metals to stay in the stone forever, then the slightly slower-drying Akepox 2030 glue is recommended.
Indoors, you can also use the Stone Glue 1000 series glues or the stone glue MS76.
Jos tarkoituksena on saada metallit pysymään kivessä ikuisesti, niin silloin suositellaan hieman hitaammin kuivavaa Akepox 2030 liimaa.
Sisätiloissa voi myös käyttää Kiviliima 1000 -sarjan liimoja tai kiviliima MS76:sta.
The sink should be attached to a stone countertop.
Akenova Rocket 200 is the best option for this task. Excellent adhesion, short (approx. 20 min) drying time and strong adhesive power make it easy to use.
Limescale and dirt on stone tile surfaces.
Acid-resistant stone types: First, remove limescale with Akemi Acid Cleaner and then grease and dirt with Akemi Intensive Cleaner. In the future, it is worth maintaining the condition of the stone surfaces with Akemi Disinfectant Cleaner to prevent the same situation from recurring.
Non-acid-resistant stone types: With non-acid-resistant stone types, it is especially important to maintain the condition of the surfaces continuously. But if the stone surfaces have reached a poor condition, the only way in this case is to use Akemi Stone Cleaner and a lot of mechanical work, i.e. brushing. In the future, it is worth maintaining them with Akemi Crystal Clean.
Ei haponkestävät kivilaadut: Ei haponkestävillä kivilaaduilla on erityisen tärkeää ylläpitää pintojen kuntoa jatkuvasti. Mutta jos kivipinnat ovat päässeet huonoon kuntoon, niin ainoa keino tässä tapauksessa on käyttää Akemin Stone Cleaneria ja erittäin paljon mekaanista työtä eli harjaamista. Jatkossa ylläpitoa kannattaa tehdä Akemin Crystal Cleanillä.
Engraved text or a carved image in stone will darken in the rain and therefore not stand out.
It is recommended to treat the stone with Akemi Stain Repellent Nano Effect. After this, rain and moisture cannot be absorbed, but instead roll off the surface of the stone in drops. The protective agent also does not contain color enhancers, so the stone retains its original color.
