Cleaning Marble Vanity Top Ring Stains

QUESTION:
How do I get rid of ring stains from my beige marble vanity tops?
ANSWER:
The "ring stains" are not actually stains where something has absorbed into the marble.
What you have are "etch marks" from contact with an acid food/drink, bath product or harsh alkaline cleaning product.
The acids corrode the marble eating away the shiny surface layer creating a dull and sometimes lighter colored spot.
To remove these etch marks you'll need to use a special compound like
SCP- Marble Polishing Paste, which I find works the best.
It's easy to use and will remove the rings restoring the shine and color.
Good Luck,
