@drwass I can't answer about why some etches and why some doesn't. It was a comment someone else wrote that stopped me in my tracks. The observation that marble, in all its etching and staining beauty, has been in place for hundreds of years across the world and the imperfections are part of its unique beauty. I thought about that. We have solid bronze hardware and it's a 'living finish'. I love that, knowing that over time, the touch of our hands, the hands of loved ones and friends, new and old, will have left a mark of time, and laughs and dinners and sourdough baking, fall stews, card game suppers....all a testament to LIVING, life, love, laughter, friends and family. I see my gorgeous and stunning super white the same. it may etch or eventually stain but if it does, I'll see it as a mark of how well we lived and loved. The same as those laugh lines and crinkles on my face.

For example, I made a bark soil - which is about pH 4.5 - and I want to use it with a bougainvillea, which likes pH between 5.5 and 6.0. Many genera of plants have specific pH requirements for their soil. In container gardening, dolomite lime is universally used to alkalize an acidic soil.

I’m updating my mater bath with dolomite snow porcelain tile and I’d like to know if anyone has a recommended grout color. Also trying to choose a white granite for the shower bench! The shower floor is a mosaic that has a variation of gray, beige, and white tiles.

Read the threads on here first about Quartzite. They are scary. I initially thought I would buy quartzite because it was harder than granite. According to the threads, some so-called quartzite is not really quartzite (fabricators/distributors pulling a fast one or not knowing). There are granites with white, but not exactly like your dolomite example. https://www.msisurfaces.com/granite-countertops/?color=white-cool,white-warm There are also products like Dekton, although there are threads on here about Dekton chipping (I think it depends on what edge you pick). https://www.cosentino.com/usa/colors/
