I wanted to validate Tony's recommendation for the L'Oreal 40 volume Oreor Creme.We recently completed a travertine floor restoration that included refinishing an area in which some pillars were removed from the floor, during a remodel. There was some adhesive residue that had penetrated into the travertine, that was apparently used to help secure the pillars to the floor during the original installation. We honed the floor, beginning at 200, and polished. After honing this area, the residue was somewhat diminished, but still remained. A poultice of mineral spirits and DE was applied, which usually works well for these types of penetrating stains, but it had minimal impact after 48 hours. I bought the creme and applied it, skeptically. 8 hours later, the stain was gone.Thanks Tony!Blain Haeg

Just poured out onto the stain it may take a couple hours. you can see it start to fade away just move the cream back-and-forth to check it.You're gonna love this stuff!Hi Tony. I bought some of the L'Oréal 40 volume cream. I am planning on using it on some marble slabs that have blue berry stains. My question is - Should I put the stuff in a poultice or apply just to the surface without a poultice? Also, how long should it dwell?Many ThanksBairdOn Sat, Apr 15, 2017 at 5:19 PM Tony Deluna <tndeluna@gmail.com> wrote:40 volume Oreor cream by L'Oréal is the fastest color stain remover I've ever seen and used on natural Stone and concrete. It may work on cultured marble too.
It's a hair lightning product that you can buy a beauty salon store.
Just poured over the stain and let it sit you don't need to cover it usualy works in hours.
If the finish does get damaged you can polish it by first sanding it with an orbital sander with a vacuum using 400, 1000, 1500 grit then polishing it with a car polishing compound. You need to buy at an autobody supply store. 3M has some good compounds. We refinish cultured marble often. You just got to make sure you don't go through the gelcoat otherwise the fiberglass Matt will show then you just bought the countertop.
