When you have a marble that is soiled, there several things that you must have when you want to clean it and these are sponge or soft cloth, warm water, marble granite cleaners and sealers, neutral and nonabrasive cleaner like clear ammonia, hydrogen peroxide or acetone, natural stone or marble cleaner which can be optional, and chamois. The first thing to do in the cleaning process of the soiled type marble is to wet the sponge or soft cloth into the warm water then you could now wipe the stone surface using the sponge or the soft cloth.

The second step in the cleaning process is you should rinse thoroughly the sponge or the soft cloth then you should remove the residue of soap on the stone surface so that it would not appear dull then repeat the rinsing of the sponge or soft cloth so that all the soap residue on the stone surface will be removed. After removing the soap residue through the use of the sponge or soft cloth with hot water, use now the chamois to dry the surface of the stone and do not let the air dry the surface.
