You can't recommend to use acid cleaner. The surface wouldn't be uniform and after the surface is etched it will attract dirt like never before.

Stained Travertine:
Unfortunately, it may not be just the dirt. There could be chlorine residue, possibly fertilizer from the plants, etc. However, it should come off with a good alkaline cleaner and some elbow grease or water pressure. Any decent stone cleaner should prove helpful. Another way to address it if your tile is honed throughout the surface is an acid cleaner. It will actually etch the surface everywhere and get rid of the dirt. This can be ticky so you may want to consider a professional.

Hi Guys,
Here is a question that came in today from a site visitor.
Please post your answers. Remember, you want to answer questions because you definitely want links back to your site.
The following question/comment was submitted from your knowledgebase
-----------------------------------------------------
Hi! We have outdoor noce travertine-unsealed- on our pool patio deck. We had a "dog party" last week and one dog loved to swim. He repeatedly jumped in our pool and then ran through our plant beds, tracking mud all over our travertine. The mud won't come off with water or hosing. How can dirt stain like this?? Can you give us any recommendations on how to clean the stains? We have read about many: pressure cleaning, Dawn detergent, hydrogen peroxide, but don't know which one is the best and safest.
Thanks...
