So as I was brushing my teeth this morning, I came upon a horrible sight. The marble countertop in the bathroom looks worse than a 10 year old neglected paintjob. A large amount of scratches, scuffs, waterspots, etc etc. Can anyone recommend a polish to me so that I can try to get this stuff out?

So a good friend of mine is in town this weekend and with him comes his isuzu rodeo. Knowing that I enjoy car care, he's asked me if he can do anything about the spots on his hood and roof. I went over today and had a look at them (alas no camera) and it looked to me to be hardened tree sap or...

So my mom's birthday was two weeks ago and my dad decided he wanted to "detail" her 2004 Volkswagen Beetle by going over it with the brown 3M rubbing compound paste as a present. Needless to say that the clear is BADLY swirled. This comes a month after I had spent 2 days polishing out minor...
