FABER MAR GEL PLUS + OXIDANT ARE YOUR THE PRO SOLUTION FOR RUST AND WATER-BASED STAINS.

Let’s talk about one of the most frustrating problems in tile and stone maintenance:
Rust stains.
Water marks.
Organic discoloration.
Deep-set surface staining that just won’t budge.
If you’ve ever tried to scrub out a rust ring from natural stone or remove stubborn water-based stains without damaging the surface, you know how tricky it can be.
That’s where FABER MAR GEL PLUS + OXIDANT steps in as a professional-grade, targeted solution.
WHAT IS FABER MAR GEL PLUS + OXIDANT?
FABER MAR GEL PLUS is a high-performance stain-removing gel specifically formulated for delicate, acid-sensitive surfaces such as:
- Marble
- Limestone
- Travertine
- Terrazzo
- Polished natural stone
When combined with its dedicated OXIDANT, it creates a powerful system designed to break down and extract:
- Rust stains
- Iron oxidation marks
- Water-based discoloration
- Organic staining
And it does it without aggressive acids that can etch or dull the surface.
WHY RUST IS SO DIFFICULT
Rust stains penetrate porous stone surfaces. Traditional acidic cleaners may lighten the stain, but they often:
- Damage polished finishes
- Create etching
- Permanently dull the surface
Using the wrong product can turn a stain issue into a restoration project.
FABER MAR GEL PLUS + OXIDANT is engineered specifically to target oxidation while protecting the integrity of the stone.
HOW IT WORKS
The gel consistency is key.
Unlike thin liquid stain removers that run off vertical surfaces, this formula:
- Clings to the stain
- Allows controlled dwell time
- Penetrates effectively
- Minimizes waste
The oxidizing action works to chemically break down rust particles and lift water-based contaminants from within the stone’s pores.
The result? Cleaner stone without surface destruction.
IDEAL APPLICATIONS
This system is perfect for:
Bathroom vanities with metal-induced rust rings
Kitchen countertops exposed to moisture
Commercial marble flooring
Lobby stone installations
Shower areas with water staining
Anywhere iron, water, or organic materials have left their mark.
SMART STAIN REMOVAL IS SUSTAINABLE
Here’s something most people overlook – proper stain removal extends the life of stone installations.
When you remove stains correctly instead of replacing materials, you:
- Reduce demolition waste
- Avoid unnecessary material replacement
- Extend the lifecycle of natural stone
- Protect your original investment
That’s real sustainability in action.
PRO TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS
- Always test in an inconspicuous area first
- Follow manufacturer dwell-time recommendations
- Avoid mixing with other chemicals
- Rinse thoroughly after treatment
Used properly, FABER MAR GEL PLUS + OXIDANT becomes a powerful tool in your surface-care arsenal.

THE BOTTOM LINE
Rust and water-based stains don’t have to mean permanent damage.
With the right chemistry and the right application, you can restore natural stone safely and effectively. Professional problems require professional solutions.
So stop scrubbing blindly. Start treating stains strategically.
