We have a beautiful antique table with a stained marble top. Not sure of the original use for this table but we plan to use it in the entry way. However, we would like to remove the large stain. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
To clean stained marble, mix baking soda and water until it's a thick paste. Apply it to the stain and cover it with plastic for 24 hours. Use a damp cloth to wipe away the mixture, repeating the process if the stain is still there.
I have had success with baking soda mixed with hydrogen peroxide. Didn't cover with plastic wrap, but did set out in the sun. Worked like a charm on a dark stain on my marble table.
I had a marble table from the 60's. it had lots of water marks on out. I tried many cleaners and procedures but nothing worked. I read about WD-40 taking water marks off wood and decided to try it. I was able to remove all but 2 small marks from the table. I applied the WD-40 several times and kept polishing with a soft cloth.

The baking soda process ruined my antique marble table. This is B.S.
Polishing compound works well. Go over the whole top to remove all the age wear and make it shine again.
