Hi @Wazzabg

 

Red wine soaks into the pores of the stone so is hard to remove by srubbing.

 

I was  thinking laundry detergents  lay claim to using enzymes to de stain clothing  I wonder if rubbing and possibly leaving atest patch of laundry detergent as a  paste might help convert the stain.

 

Purely  Experimental  @Wazzabg   try  with great care

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @Wazzabg. It's wonderful to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about removing stains.

Unfortunately, there's not much I can add to the discussion, as @Jewelleryrescue has mentioned a reconstituted stone will absorb the wine into the surface. Once it's in there, no amount of scrubbing will remove it, as it's no longer sitting on the surface. Perhaps you could contact a few benchtop repair professionals to see if there are any options.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
