"All you have to do is mix together the age-old classic - hydrogen peroxide and baking soda - with a little water until it creates a paste. Then, just spread it over the water marks in a deep layer. The solution should help lift the stains right away, but for an even better impact, you can leave it on overnight and cover the counter with cling film."
"The hydrogen peroxide-baking soda trick works on other stains, too, like red wine stains or dark food spills. You just need to make sure that the counters are sealed, especially if you're using a lot of hydrogen peroxide. In fact, if you don't dilute the peroxide enough with water, it can actually break down the sealant and lighten the color of the granite over time."
"For similar reasons, you don't want to add any vinegar to the mix, and try to avoid getting anything acidic on the stone too. Some other things to avoid using on granite include any abrasive sponges and cleaning sprays that contain ammonia or bleach. Don't store these common items on granite countertops either. For everyday cleaning, just use a homemade cleaning solution of diluted dish soap and a microfiber cloth."
Mix hydrogen peroxide, baking soda, and a little water into a paste, apply in a thick layer over granite water marks, and leave overnight covered with cling film for stronger results. Allow the paste to dry, then wipe off with water and repeat if necessary. The peroxide–baking soda paste also works on red wine and dark food stains, but counters must be sealed because undiluted peroxide can break down sealant and lighten granite color over time. Avoid vinegar, other acids, abrasive sponges, and cleaning sprays with ammonia or bleach. For daily cleaning, use diluted dish soap and a microfiber cloth.
