I was wondering what I can use to clean the counters with and keep them sanitary. Thanks. We just installed Calacatta honed marble in our kitchen.

The fabricatior knew that they did not need sealing. I have begun to notice rings from water that do not wipe out, or go away with cleaning. Also it seems like my counters smear when I wipe them unless, I wipe them dry as I go along. I have only used MB-F from Marblecleaning.org, it does not have a sealer in it. From my research this problem should not be occuring with this stone. What do you suspect is the cause? What is the remedy? I intend to have the fabricator out to deal with it, but I want to know what it is beofre he tries to put a wax or something else on it. Is it possible that this is sealer sitting on top?
