Hi guys,
This might sound like a really stupid question, but i am desperate, so pls bear with me!

I recently purchased 2 apartments side by side and i broke down the walls to turn it into 1 unit. In the 1st apartment, I broke down the kitchen so that the entire place becomes a large hall. The original hall uses broken marble and the original kitchen uses tiles. When I broke the kitchen down, I wanted to use back the same type of marble (or something similar). My contractor said that he could get it for me, but it wouldn't be 100% the same. At first, before polishing, it didn't look so bad. But after polishing it, the difference is so obvious! The new marble has a grayish hue to it whereas the original is white. is it possible to lighten the marble using chemical???

looks like i am screwed than as it is too late to replace the whole flooring. it didn't look that bad before polishing

i can't stand vinyl flooring bro! like factory production floor . anyhow will probably put a rug over it and hopefully with the furniture in place it won't look too noticeable (i highly doubt it though )
