hard water stains on Uba Tuba

How can I gently clean off hard water deposites around sink faucets without harming my counter top. I would normally use diluted vinegar on any other surface. Is this safe to use on my Uba Tuba couter top?
 

Dear Rosanne:

Using anything acidic on natural stone is never a good idea.

Remove the worst with a razor blade (no it will not scratch the stone surface) and then finish the job with an alkaline product with chelates in its formula rated for natural stone, like MB-3.

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,
