Sometimes when trying to stain a blade, I used tap water mixed with FeCl and got a color like that. Now use distilled water.

Atlanta water is so bad and atheist could walk on it!

If it is a stain, chemical removers won't help. Might try some 900-1000 grit sandpaper with water or WD40. Bet that will clean it off.
