I recently purchased a beautiful marble top dining room table. Upon inspection, I noticed a slight red stain, which I removed with a cleaning sponge, but unfortunately used the abrasive side of the sponge. Now I have a dull/scratched area (but the stain is gone). It’s a small area (about 2 inches) but it bothers me that it is there, especially as the table is new!
Does anyone have a home remedy to remove this kind of scratch from the marble? I do know NOW that marble is very sensitive! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
My Mom has a marble entryway in her apartment. We went to Home Depot to find out how to shine up the marble. The person who helped us told us that we should use a marble cleaner with a soft cloth…apparently, you’re not even supposed to get much water on marble. As far as the scuff marks, she said that we should really look into getting a marble polisher…a person who specializes in polishing marble to do the floor.
You might want to call a granite/marble tile or kitchen counter store in your neighborhood and find out if they have a special trick for your table.
Good luck. I can only imagine how broken hearted you are about this.

Home depot and Lowes carry a product called "Gell Gloss" for polishing and removing small scratches out of marble/granite. It worked pretty well on my countertops. Next time you find a stain, get a marble/granite specific cleaner, which is non abrasive.

If it is dark-coloured…
You need some soot or ashes.
Place some over the scratches then use an old unwanted cloth to wipe away the excess, and the soot/ashes will cover the scratches and the table will be like brand new!!
