Marble countertops can get stained and etched due to a variety of factors. One of the primary causes of staining is the absorption of liquids, such as wine or coffee. Additionally, acidic substances, such as lemon juice or vinegar, can cause etching, which is a chemical reaction that dissolves the surface of the marble.

Other factors that can contribute to staining and etching include improper cleaning techniques, exposure to heat, and the use of abrasive materials. To prevent staining and etching, it is important to seal your countertops regularly and clean spills immediately.
