Color Marker Stain on Travertine Top

QUESTION:

My grandsons colored on my travertine marble top with a green color marker. How can I get it out? The marble has never been sealed.

ANSWER:

Cleaning marble stains from a permanent marker can be difficult. Common methods won't work since the ink gets below the surface.

However, you can usually clean marble ink stains using the step-by-step instructions in the Removing Marble Stains Manual.

You may have to repeat the process a few times, but you'll be able to see your progress and just keep at it until the travertine stain is removed.

Good Luck,
Ryan
