Quick marble question

[user123]

Arrgh, just realized that I can solve one particular quandry with a bit of pink marble I have, not worked with it before, it's to be included in a glass mosaic, external, epoxy grouted. Is there anything I need to do to the marble, re sealers etc or can I just use it as it is?

Marble, anyone?

I always treat marble like polished porcelain G, always seal it with LTP MPG. LTP themselves recommend this product for polished marble. I'm assuming it's polished?

oh gawd.. it's not polished, an offcut, perfect colour as it is, just small pieces of it, perfect for certain colour dots I need. If I use it just as is, what would happen? Stay as it is or would it deteriorate, colourfade, what? Don't have any sealers like that in and it would be nonsensical for me to shell out for some fancy sealer for about 10 square centimenters of marble, I do have pure beeswax though, is that any good as end treatment?

Can you not use your spray sealer.. lay the bits out and spray over with the LTP aerosol..
