What Houzz contributors are saying:
Etches and solutionsAcidic substances like milk, fruit, juice and alcohol will sometimes cause both etching and staining – a double whammy. If you are successful in removing the stain and want to attack the etching, the MIA suggests wetting the surface with water and sprinkling on marble polishing powder. Rub the powder into the stone with a damp cloth or use a buffing pad with a low-speed power drill or polisher. Continue buffing until the etch mark disappears and the marble surface shines. Honing may be required for deep etching. “If your counter does end up staining, you can have a professional come in and take the sealer and the stain off,” Laney says. “But what’s going to happen is you are going to end up with a honed countertop, because you can’t re-polish the installed marble like you would at the fabricators or the stone suppliers.”
What Houzzers are commenting on:
Marble top consider marble top kitchen sink, credenza, baking rack
Pastry table. Plan a space for a pastry table in the main work triangle. Old-fashioned pastry tables are typically lower than standard countertops. A marble or similar solid surface is ideal for rolling out pastry or bread dough.
