Removing Marble Vanity Cigarette Burn

QUESTION:

I have a off white vanity top that got burned by a cigarette how can I remove the burn.

ANSWER:

You'll need to sand away the burned marble using 80 grit metal sand paper. Once the burn is removed, finish sanding with 240 grit metal sand paper and 0000 grade steel wool pad.

This process will remove the polish in the area leaving a dull spot with a slight depression.

To completely restore the damage to match the rest of the marble vanity, then you'll need to hire a marble restoration professional.

I would hire a pro from the get-go, but if you don't mind the resulting blemish, then sand it out yourself.

Good Luck,
Ryan
