Default Stain on marble top

'Cause it looks nice, the sales man pushes it and they don't know how
vulnerable it is.

I agree with TNP, very fine (800) wet & dry used wet around a firm
block and lots of elbow grease with rubbing compound afterwards. I'd
be tempted to try the rubbing compound first just in case it improves
without using the W&D. Polishing out the W&D marks *will* be hard
work.

A polishing machine of some sort will take a lot of the effort away
but be gentle marble is soft...
