Residue on polished marble

[CCTiling]

Hey guys. Taken over a polished marble job. The previous tiler hasn't cleaned the grout off the tiles he has done very well and it is very difficult to buff up. Can you use a chemical on polished marble?

no, its used for polishing all the time
try it out on a patch where it wont be noticed and you will see how good it is

Try 00 Grade first then work your way up if you are going that route

Wire wool worked a treat. I used 01 grade coz that is all they had. You forgot to tell me I needed to buy some elbow grease too!! It took a while but you can use them as a mirror now

It is easier when the wire wool is on a rotary scrubber I have to admit. But glad you got it done
