Anybody got an urgent solution

Trust me on this, there's no better product for this one. I can't say how I know, but I know!
(this product has been tested by rather miffed sealant companies who are going to copy it)

Looking at the videos and how it restores acid marked stone it does look good.
 
Limestone is actually pH neutral dissolved in water, but it is an alkaline agent.
The acid used had released /created calcium salts.

(that's technical for "he gone done goofed")
 
Limestone is mainly composed of Calcium Carbonate which has a pH of nearly 10 which makes it towards the high end of alkaline (14 being the maximum). Even weak acid solutions will cause a dissolving action, and even something like cola which is acidic can dissolve and stain the surface. Without an impregnating sealer, limestone remains vulnerable to any weak acid solutions over time (including acid rain in areas of high pollution).
