Removing Mold on Marble Table
by Alison
QUESTION:
Light cream marble top table looks to have mould in patches over it, can this be cleaned and how?
ANSWER:
Most likely you'll have success removing mold from the marble table top. It just depends if it is on the surface or has created a marble stain.
First, you'll want to remove all surface mold by cleaning marble with this
MOLD & MILDEW Remover, which is safe for use on marble (most common cleaners are not).
You should spray on, let sit for 5-10 minutes and then scrub with a soft-bristle brush or pad. That may be all you need to do.
If stains remain then the mold has absorbed into the marble and regular surface marble cleaning methods won't be enough.
To remove marble stains follow the step-by-step instructions for cleaning marble stains of all types in the
Removing Granite & Marble Stains e-book.
Stains in marble are rarely permanent, so the e-book methods will get out the mold stain unless it is very old and deep. You may have to repeat the process a few times, but almost always does the trick.
Good Luck,
Ryan
