honed black absolute

I have honed black absolute on my kitchen island. It has many ring marks and scratches that don't go away when washed? Is there anything I can do to fix this problem?
 

Dear Maggie:

If it were only for the rings and stains you could do it yourself, but since you have scratches, too, your only option is to hire a bona fide stone restoration contractor that will have to completely re-hone with a good-quality honing powder your entire countertop. After tht I would encourage you to apply a good-quality stone color enhancer resistant to acidic substances like MB-6 and also the use of appropriate cleaning products like MB-5.

May I ask you now to please read and e-sign our Statement of Purpose at: http://www.marblecleaning.org/purpose.htm?

Ciao and good luck,

Maurizio Bertoli
