Another Poultice situation

[Wandslinger]

This client installed a new cooktop. Hopefully you can see from the photos, there is a half to one inch light ring around it now. My intial thought is trying to use a poultice to try and blend it in but Im afraid I might open pandora's box and make it more noticeable since the wring will get larger. Thoughts ?

The whole slab will need it

 

[Wandslinger]

Right?.....okay, we'll just leave it be

As Mike says, either need to do the entire slab or just do nothing for a few weeks and it will all look the same.

 

[Mikey P]

Yep.

Slather it in butter..

 

[Wandslinger]

Thanks gentleman

Baby oil might darken up the lighter area.

 

[Mikey P]

Motor oil will speed it up

Degreaser under a steam mop could help. Just depends on the stone being willing to give it up.

Dang, I thought I had a picture.

just spread poultice over the whole top. It will take a few days to dry out. Maybe one more application after that, but it should come out. It won't be cheap, but if they want it done, it can be done.
