You can just buff it out. $24 for a buffer at Menards

You'll need a cover for the buffer and some compound

Here's a how to a dug up. http://www.doityourself.com/stry/how-to-polish-travertine-tile

For your marble countertops, take a look at this product.

We had marble tile installed in the shower and also have marble countertops, both which were lightly damaged during the install. A harsh chemical was used on both and the marble developed light scratches and this ugly white film on it.

That polish brought everything back to brand-new. It was a TON of work, mostly because it really took some elbow grease to get the polish back and you only work in small areas at a time, but it was worth it.

Our remodel didn't take as long as yours, but it was definitely fraught with problems and by the end I just wanted the contractors gone. Sorry to hear about the problems you had. Hope you're able to get everything fixed and to your liking.

Edit: Regarding the product I recommended, it's a small tub, but a little goes a long way. I used about a tub and a half for the full shower.

I have carrera marble in my kitchen. We just discovered a really huge etch due to a glass with vinegar sitting there all night. I did a little research and found this product really works wonders. There's a youtube video that you can watch to help you figure it out. Smaller etches come out with a few minutes of work. The larger ones may take a few applications. You have to reseal your counters afterwards as this removes all of the sealing. But you should do that yearly anyways.

Something must be wrong with the way you searched the British National Corpus, then, because I just a did a simple Google search and, apart from all the dictionary entries, the first hits were for "impregnated timber" and "impregnated catalysts".

In the specific context of infusing stone with a chemical solution, there is, for example, this site which, near the bottom, discusses the four different types of impregnation and how they can protect natural stone from various types of stain. You can buy impregnating sealer, or read up on the difference between surface sealers and impregnating sealers. An Australian company had to recall a brand of impregnated washcloths, 3M sells a range of impregnated fabrics and yarns, and if you ever build a garden shed or wooden fence, you should use an impregnating primer to protect it against the effects of moisture and fungi.

I can assure you that this is a very common use of the word. Not just in industrial and scientific contexts, but in the home as well, especially in the area of DIY.
