MB Stone MB-11® Touch-Up Etch Remover Marble Polishing Powder for Light to Medium Etches Only, use with Neutral Colored Calcite-Based, not for Matte or Dark Stone, 8 oz Can

I have a white marble bathroom countertop and two beige bathroom countertops. All three were in bad shape, especially around the sinks. Etchings from makeup, toothpaste, various soap products, and spilled CLR made these countertops look pretty bad. Other than calling in the professionals and spending at least $600 to clean up the mess, I decided to give MB Stone MB-11 a try. The bad news is it takes a lot of rubbing using significant force to remove the stains on the countertops. The etching made by the CLR were the hardest to remove. It took multiple times applying the compound to a moist rag and rubbing the etching to remove the stains. The good news is this product saved the day. Following the directions, I was able to remove all the etchings and made the countertops look almost new. It took me the better part of 5 hours to do all three countertops, but it was well worth the effort. I did buy this product from Amazon's warehouse deal for $31, which was a great value. The next project is to seal the countertops, which is needed to prevent future stains. I would highly recommend MB-11 for a DIY project. It is not messy and doesn't require any buffing equipment (just elbow grease). It really works, but it is time-consuming, and I guarantee your hands and fingers will be sore when you are done. The powder goes a long way, I still have 2/3rds of the jar left after completing my project. I have attached a before and after picture of one of the countertops. I would recommend MB-11 and would purchase it again.

This stuff works! We are in a rental and the previous tenants took poor care of the marble countertops. Alltough some etching didn’t budge, it did a great job taking off some of it. Our counters are sparkling! Beware smell is strong and it did make me a little lightheaded. Open the window when using, and wear a mask.

I had a terrible lemonade spill on my travertine tile floors which resulted in two very noticeable, dull etch marks. I was skeptical about any product that could fix acid damage, but I decided to try MB Stone MB-11® Touch-Up Etch Remover. I applied it to the etched areas exactly as directed. The difference after the first treatment was significant! The worst of the dullness is gone, and the marks are definitely less noticeable. While the damage isn't totally vanished, I believe a second treatment will get it much closer to perfect. If you have light etching on polished stone like travertine, this is absolutely worth the investment before calling a professional. It improved the area enough that I can easily live with it, and I'm optimistic a second round will finish the job. Highly recommended for DIY etch removal.

The container looked old and worn. The cap was cracked and unsealed. It was about 2/3 full like it has been already used. I’m not sure if the powder is even the right product.

So easy to use and completely removed the etching from cat vomit. Have also used their stain reeper for shampoo drip on shower wall..Completely removed it as well. I have a newly remodeled home with opal marble..very porous.. called MB stone and they told me exactly what to do. Great products!

So .... after a few attempts and a lot of research....this does work. However....I’m now hesitant to use it on small etching spots. I have found it extremely difficult to keep the MB-11 in one small spot. When you rub it in, you naturally rub around the spot - not just right in the middle of it so then the outside of the spot needs rubbed cause you’ll just cause more etching if you don’t, then so on and so on. It’s hard to find a stopping place. The MB-11 is so fine that it just goes everywhere no matter how hard I try to keep it in a small section. It’s so fine that you can’t see it spread. I think I would only use this if I need to do a bigger section OR need to get a bad obvious stain out of it. But next time I’m using a buffer instead of doing it by hand. It takes A LOT of elbow grease and muscle to use. Like I was sweating just doing a small spot. So it does work but it seemed to create more work for me and more spots to buff. I also followed the directions to a T and tried it several times. Good luck.

My marblelite counters were a mess from several years of being unsealed. Chemicals, water, contact lens solution... we had it all. I finally tried this and it cleared up more than 50% of the stains. The others have become less visible in direct light. I used a car detailing drill brush attachment and laid into the paste for several applications (close to 45 minutes total). I imagine that newer, surface level stains could be removed by hand as they describe.

Amazing . I had a heart attack when i saw a huge etching stain on my marble table from my dear husband dropping lemon juice on it and never told me about as he thinks he wiped it good with water 😥 none the less i started my research and came across this product . Ordered it and came overnight it . I am putting before and after pictures so you can see the difference. The application was pretty easy in the beginning. I put too much product and the table had strokes on it. I thought I ruined my table, but then again I repeated the application with less product and wiped it with just more water afterwards to remove any residue and it was shining like it’s brand new! Highly recommended for beige white marble tables. I put the sealer on top and I’m waiting until tomorrow for further inspection to see if the whole stain is gone but as of right now, it looks amazing.!

In a cleaning frenzy I left a bottle of bleach on a marbled surface, I couldn’t un-see it and thought I’d ruined the surface with this etch. It was driving me nuts. Until I did a little research and discovered this miracle product. With very little effort it had vanished. 100% worth every cent. Please don’t be discouraged by negative reviews. THIS ABSOLUTELY WORKS! See my before and after pic. Just purchased a second tub for relatives who have tried everything else and have been quoted thousand$ for repair jobs from professionals. My tip…. Do it yourself and don’t get scammed into thinking it’s irreparable. Thank you to whoever invented this. Your degree was worth it. ONE VERY HAPPY AND RELIEVED CUSTOMER HERE 🙌🏻

I have watched a few Youtube etch stain removal video before buying the product. It works really well! For larger stain, you might have to work a few rounds to remove it flawlessly. Overall, very satisfied with the product! Remember to keep your gloves on while scrubbing, I was too excited with the result and forget to put my glove back after feeling the smooth surface, I had accidentally continue to scrub without my glove and my fingers felt pretty itchy after that. The etch remover is awesome, just don't do silly thing like me.

It works decently. I think it does some kind of chemical reactions.but it removes stains. Though for items that were etched too deepl, you might need to sand it to level it.

It works. My marble bench got a small etch. I used this product to touch up the marble. It worked. The itch has been removed.

I was sceptical that this produce would work as i had etch marks from orange juice. To my surprise, it worked after just 10 minutes of application and cleaning. It does leave a residue that will go away after cleaning the marble floor a few times.
