I'll even drive down after the 16th (since I'll have time) and offer some form of bribe.

Does anyone know if the Armor All works makes a difference on black granite also?
I see that armor all protectant produced in 3 versions
1) original
2) gloss finish
3) mat finish
Which version gives better contrast on black marble?
Also works on granite?
I have only used the original Armor All so I don't know if the other two work work.

acrylic black ? (oil based paints does not work on marble)
Thanks for sharing! Guess I need to do some shopping, had moved from ArmorAll to Vinylex for the vehicles, but will do some testing with the Vinylex too!
I have used armor all protectant gloss because original is not available in europe only matt & gloss protectant are available
and iam not seeing any difference like more white or enhanced contrast.
In what black marble the more white/contrast has been observed ?
Maybe the reason is the material iam using and no armor all protectant.
I have ordered armor all original protectant from US because that is not available to EU and i will post my results with original protectant..

Has this tip not been posted before? I used this technique well over 10 years ago when engraving some black marble trophy bases and I don't think I am clever enough to have worked it out myself!
