QUESTION:

How can I remove yellow spot on natural marble that due to using toilet cleaner containing Hydrochloric Acid? The type of Marble is Italian called Kararh.

ANSWER:

The acid in the cleaner has etched the marble causing the dull and/or discolored spots called "etch marks."

The solution depends on if the marble is polished or a non-polished finish (honed, tumbled).

If polished, a good marble polishing compound like SCP- Marble Polishing Paste will restore the shine and color.

However, if the marble is honed, you'll need to follow the step-by-step instructions in the Removing Etch Marks Manual.

And in the future, use only products specifically formulated for use on or around marble.
