Hi Muzzy,

I notice that there is not a lot of help offered on this forum anymore, it wasn't always the case, seems to have taken a nose-dive lately.
But anyways..your problem...
I would try to polish it out...or use a poultice , if it is still present after these steps it will have to be grinded out....

Didn't see your post!  Need more info to advise!

Colour of granite?
Did you do an acid test?

If it is a true granite then rust remover would not have damaged it.  You need to conduct an acid test for me. Then I can advise you accordingly. If you are not sure how to do this post back and I will talk you through it!

There is loads of help on this Forum!   In point of fact I have offered you advice on several occasions!  You did say at some point last year you wanted to do a course with us!  Not sure what happened after that though!  I do try and answer most people on here with good advice but since the recent argumentswith Rob Hall most ppeople who want help either ring me or e-mail me direct.

@ kevin

I posed a query yesterday..there were 40 views or so and not 1 response...surely ppl viewing this topic have some sort of knowledge in the subject...I would have appreciated some input is all..
And to see the same thing with Mr. Muzzy's post also... ???

I know that you are very generous with your time and help to others on this forum Kevin,
it seems at times that you hold it all up ...and I for one do appreciate all your efforts.
As for doing your course..I on Mikes course last year, and do plan on getting over to do yours also..especially the concrete end of it.
Life is very busy lately , with new born, family and work is coming out of my ears...I don't get to breath  :o
I do look forward to meeting you and learning lots ..

Please keep posting what you do, regardless of anyone elses opinions  ;)


Peter
