Hello!
We have used Contempo Madrid Blanco (Midland Brick) in our gas fireplace and other areas in the house. Some of the bricks have a yellow discolouration which is very visible. Can these be cleaned? Or do we insist they be replaced?
“Contempo Madrid is an imported product. Due to high density clay used, the moisture absorption rate is reduced when compared to locally manufactured clay brick products.”
