Paint will not adhere long term to polished marble! I almost painted some well weathered marble exterior window sills once - until I realized what they were. Suggested to the homeowner that they buff and polish them.

Not something I have ever done, but if you google "painting a marble countertop" you can find any number of sites with tutorials. There are also kits for painting over marble.

I would think you'd have to pre-etch with an acid or sand with a fine emery paper to rough up the surface. Otherwise the paint would have a very limited life.
