Today, we’re at the historic Nashville Cemetery, cleaning some of the most fascinating and delicate monuments, including the gravestone of William Driver—the man who coined the name Old Glory for the American flag. With centuries of history etched in stone, the care we give these monuments matters.
💡 Why Use Monu-mental Cleaner?
Monumental is a quat-based, non-toxic cleaner specifically designed for historic graves and monuments. It’s powerful against algae, moss, and mold but gentle enough for soft stone like marble or granite.
Benefits of Monumental:
-
No Scrubbing or Rinsing: Just spray and let it work its magic!
-
Safe for Historic Stones: Contains no bleach or acids.
-
Eco-Friendly & Non-Corrosive: Perfect for protecting sensitive surfaces.
-
Versatile Application: Can be used on roofs, sidewalks, fences, and more.
Using my trusty Milwaukee sprayer, I applied a heavy coat to Driver’s monument, focusing on letting the cleaner dwell in every nook and cranny. The difference is already visible, and over time, rain will wash away the residue, leaving the stone pristine.
