We had a metal tray under the toaster to catch bread crumbs. Turns out this was a bad idea on a stone benchtop - bread crumbs are a lot easier to clean up than rust stains:

But thanks to TFP I knew exactly what to do. Went down the Oxalic Acid route, was easiest to source at the Hardware store. Even though Oxalic Acid is not the preferred option for a pool due to potential formation of Calcium Oxalate scale, for a kitchen benchtop that's not an issue. Turns out that the benchtop manufacturer also recommends Oxalic Acid.
So, one quick Bunnings trip later, the kitchen benchtop looks like new again:

Thank you, TFP!
