Help! I made a mark on the marble

[Ilovemyshed]

I stupidly out a bottle of bleach based cleaner onto the marble counter in the bathroom and it has lightly etched a mark in the shape of the base of the bottle onto the marble.

Anyone have any ideas how I fix it?

I’m assuming there was some of the cleaner on the outside of the bottle?

this says fireplaces but…it’s not good news I’m afraid.

CAN BLEACH STAINS BE REMOVED FROM MARBLE & STONE FIREPLACES?
Answer: No they cannot be removed One of the most harmful & irreversible things that can permanently damage stone & marble fireplaces is bleach. Essentially Bleach products such as ‘Cillit Bang’ penetrates the inner layer within stone (remember most stone used in fireplaces is sedimentary) and stain the inner surface, as well as amending the polish on the surface. As bleach often (if not always) penetrates the deep surface, the damage cannot be undone and the fireplace in almost all cases is ruined.

This happened to my parents marble floor. They had to have the whole thing professionally ground down and re finished / polished. It was expensive but it was a large area as had to do multiple rooms as whilst the damage was in the bathroom it was continuous marble floor through hall and dining.

Yes, I can also search the internet and find this but I was after real experiences and solutions, thanks

you generally can't remove it. What you can potentially do is etch a larger area so that you have a larger etched area and not an obvious ring.

I deliberately etch my marble when it's installed. It saves a lot of heartache.

It is very hard if not nigh on impossible to get marks out of marble. In the past we had an old was stand whose marble top was stained and we kept mixing salt and lemon juice into a paste and it helped slightly but as it was second hand when we bought it dont know what stains were
