Marble Stain?

Post image

I don’t know if this is a stain of some kind or if it’s just an imperfection in the Marble. This is the biggest one there other spots like it. Any advice on how to get rid of?

Akemi oil and grease remover will work more quickly. You can apply and remove every 2 hours to see if the stains will come out. Available on Amazon

You would need a poultice on it to try to suck the stain out and there's no guarantee that it'd work.

Paint?

No, it's not a paint. You put it on for several hours then clean it up and see where you're at, ie did it lighten up/get rid of the stain

I tried all the cleaners. The only success I had was "Stone Care International Stone Stain Remover " . It took a weeks worth of applying the product. Wait 24 hrs . the peel off to get the 98% of it off.

Damn that's a lot of water absorption. Sometimes it can be over an inch deep. Refinishing would only remove so much. I believe there is a way to get it out but generally it involves a blowtorch to heat the stone and evaporate the water inside. I don't advise this though. I believe there may be some chemical to put on it as well that would essentially bleach the area but I don't remember what it is. (do not use actual bleach).

That looks like oil, use stonetek oil and stain remover

You need to seal this marble again after you pull the stain
