Here in the United States, where my parents are buried in the cemetery marker own professional and marble tombstones - for a fee, of course. Maybe you want this option before you try to keep clean themselves. Note, however, that marble is porous and stains easily. Acids dissolve. For rust stains can be strong with a soft cloth and mild detergent, non-abrasive on the surface are removed with washing. Should not be sufficient, the backlog in testing an application of the Naval Jelly rust remover or other according to the manufacturer's instructions available. But good food, not washing followed by the use of the product, the stone.
PS - There are lots of marble, cleaning products available online and in stores of major equipment. Here in America we have stores such as Lowe's and Home Depot. Note: The above is polished for the last marble. If you have an antique marble, which is already tanned clean, then you can use a brush to copper wire and Clorox Bleach (the thick kind) to use for this task. The bleach will get rid ofNo algae formation. I use it in my bird bath regularly. But do not forget to rinse thoroughly with water.

Mix one quarter cup of bleach in the soapy water. If the surface is not polished and bleach does not work, you can go to a hardware store and buy hydrochloric'',''. Be careful, wear rubber gloves and goggles during and following the instructions on the label!

If your polished marble is after the movie about him that you believe to be boring in the oxidation atmosphere, and algae, it forms a film on. We recommend using Brasso or T-cut (like they could use a car on the back color) This will remove the surface film and blunting Thomas is likely to reform in time. Give it a try, Good Luck
