Safe Cleaner for Cast Marble

[Nyboy]

Picked up a large marble greek woman from craigslist. Going to put her in garden as a ornament. She must have been inside with a smoker, covered in a yellow sticky subtance I am sure is nicotine. I know marble can stain; would like to get her white again. Any safe cleaners?

A baking soda and water paste maybe?

Works on teeth, stainless steel, etc. Very gentle without being abrasive.

Pictures?? Congrats on the find! Don't know how to clean marble, but know not to use acids, vinegar or most cleaning products.

All that I know is not to use anything that Bay just mentioned.

Pa is a marble man, which means that working on and restoring this kind of stuff is his job. He works as the only employee at his own marble restoration company. (He works on much more than marble.)

I'll ask him when he gets back from work...

Maybe you can get some moss to grow on her.
