Anthony,
I think you may need to make a
poultice using methylene chloride to remove the rest of the silicone. Mix
up your poultice using DE powder and the Methylene Chlorides into a paste like
you would any other poultice and cover the spot completely. Be sure to cover
the poultice with plastic and make sure NO one gets into this poultice. Put some
small holes into the plastics so the poultice and dry. Let the poultice
work for at least 24 to 36 hour and then remove it . Clean the area using a
neutral cleaner. Let the surface dry , this could take a day or two, with any
luck when you return the stain will be gone.
Caution, if there are children,
pets, or the area is open to the general public be sure to cover the poultice
completely where no one can get into the poultice.

Does anyone know the name of
this stone

I removed the excessive
silicone, I grinded and honed and retextured the stone, but the silicone hue
still exists. What would you do?
