Q. I have a granite top on our bar with several "ring stains." Can I use a marble polishing compound for polishing them out? A. A marble polishing compound can sometimes be used and shouldn't do any harm. However you may need to use a granite polishing compound. If that doesn't work you will need a professional restoration company to refinish the top. What you are describing sounds like mineral deposits, but it could be caused from other things as well. If the polish does not resolve the problem, I recommend that you call in a professional to identify the real problem and the solution. Dr. Fred Fred M.
