How do I get Fantastic spray streaks off tumbled marble?
+8
My cleaning lady last week came feeling bad and forgot to not use Fantastic on our tumbled marble tiles in the shower. She sprayed it on and left it now I have these soapy looking streaks on the taupe colored tiles. What can I use to remove the streaks.

..I would recommend a baking soda and water solution. I have come across this as I was a personal professional housekeeper. 3 to 4 tablespoons of baking soda to one quart water.. ..Apply with a CLEAN sponge and let sit until dry..wipe again with a clean , soft, damp cloth. this should help . There is also a cleaner made especially for tumbled marble that may help your streaks.

Look up marble poultice. Some are diy mixtures and some you can purchase. It is a product you put on the marble when it is moist and let it dry overnight. It pulls out stains in the marble.

Do you have an antiques shop that restores pieces near you? They can give you the best advice even a high end jewelry store that sells vintage jewelry.

I would either use vinegar, lemon juice or a baking soda and water mixture. The vinegar should take care of it right away. I use to do house cleaning for a business. I was doing some looking and found 2 products you could try for an easier job http://www.formula409.com/products/cleaners/natural-stone-and-steel-cleaner/?gclid=COSjs9KYtcMCFYhbfgod350ApA http://www.thelaundress.com/for-the-home/home-cleaning/f/material_type2/marble-granite-stone Good Luck

I will try vinegar next, tried the baking soda till I ran out, and it did a little good. Thanks for all your help guys and after I get this clean I am going to seal it more often.

Be very careful with vinegar and marble, I used it on my marble and it etched the surface. It is an acid and not recommended for marble.

your marble has been etched. Using vinegar on something etched will make it worse. Here is the guidelines to marble and stone. This will tell you what to use and not to use on it. https://marble-institute.com/stoneprofessionals/commercial_care_clean.pdf

Also ask where they sell mainly marble and usually they would know.
