Homeowners across Georgia love marble for its beauty, elegance, and luxury feel — but it’s no secret that marble countertops can be delicate. Etching, staining, and dull spots often appear within months of installation. That’s exactly what one Atlanta homeowner experienced after a recent kitchen renovation featuring Calacatta Gold marble from Ciot.
When the surface began to show wear, they turned to Kevin and the N-Motion Stone & Tile team — Atlanta’s trusted experts in marble restoration and countertop protection.
The Problem: Etching and Staining on Calacatta Gold Marble
Despite using high-end commercial sealers, the homeowners found that etching — those cloudy dull marks left by acids like lemon juice or wine — kept appearing. Sealers can slow down staining but cannot stop etching.
“Given the high cost of the marble, we were concerned with etching and staining, which simply cannot be avoided. While the commercial sealers help (minimally), they do not prevent the unsightly etching.”
The Solution: MORE® AntiEtch®
Kevin and his team began by restoring the marble surface, removing every trace of etching and dullness to bring back its natural, reflective sheen. Once restored, they applied MORE® AntiEtch®, a next-generation, professional-grade coating that stops etching and staining before they start — without changing the appearance of the stone.
“Kevin’s team prepped the marble and removed all existing etching before the product was applied. Now, the marble looks new just as it did the day it was installed.”
With MORE® AntiEtch®, the homeowners can now enjoy their marble without worrying about coffee spills, citrus splashes, or their toddler’s messy fingerprints.
Professional Marble Restoration You Can Trust
From the first visit to the final cleanup, N-Motion’s technicians impressed the homeowners with their attention to detail and respect for the home.
“The technicians were professional, organized, timely, responsive, and thoroughly clean. They carefully taped off all the cabinetry, sink, appliances, and protected the floors as well.”
That level of professionalism is what sets N-Motion Stone & Tile apart as one of Atlanta’s top-rated marble restoration and stone care companies.
