Rust Stains on Marble

I have a marble slab in my shower that I kept shampoo, shaving cream and other things on. The problem is the metal cans have left rust stains on the marble. Can someone please tell me how to get the stains out? Desperately needing help.

Thanks,
Angelheart from Clyde, TX

I have used a regular green scrubbing pad that you can buy to clean your dishes. Just buff as hard as you dare with the dampened cleaner and the stains will be removed. Do not press too hard though, as you may scratch the marble.

baltimore city is famous for its marble steps. the ladies used to clean them every day. they used bleach. it isnt like you could ruin it more.

Angie,
Marble is very delicate. Don't use any bleach, vinegar or citrus products on it. The magic eraser might be the best because it is slightly abrasive without any chemicals that might harm it.

I removed yrs. of dirt from the marble piece on the floor in my bathroom doorway with that new Magic Pad from Mr. Clean. Maybe it would get the rust off.
