Hi , just wanted to give you all an update , the restoration guy should be coming out in the next week, I think the stone is looking worse. The grays are grayer and that white haze does not seem to be getting any better. As I never sealed the stone it seems to get a lot of pollen/tree stains on it and it is not easy to get it off but I am still fighting the good fight. The restoration guy had me do a spot test by getting a bucket of warm water, putting a teaspoon of Dawn in it and then pouring it on one of the gray stones to see if the gray lightened up at all . He had me doing this a few times a day . It looks slightly lighter. I am looking forward to meeting him and getting his take . No word from PB yet on if or how they plan to address. In the meantime I am waiting patiently and blowing through a good bit of my Scotch collection. Hope everyone's week is off to a great start. - Jen

@parkinsmith hello! How did it all work out? Unfortunately I am in the exact same situation with a very similar marble and acid washing by the sub.
 
Some images. This is sand blasted marble that looked white with faint grey veins. It appears that the marble was etched by the acid or something because it looks patchy and uneven now.

In addition, the last two pictures show what looks like cement stains. There are many small and large stains like this.
