General Directions

Different stones require different polishing techniques. In general, you would need to:

• Prepare the surface. Hone it to the highest clarity possible.
• Apply proper masking materials to areas of the surface that can be damaged by splatters.

Below are the specific directions for buffing terrazzo floors and countertops:

Floors:

• Target an area of approximately 10 sq. ft.
• In the middle of the target area, sprinkle approximately 2 oz. of product in a circular pattern slightly smaller than the diameter of the floor machine.
• Using a hog’s hair pad, position the floor machine with water on top of the powder.
• The machine cannot exceed 175 RPM for best results and needs at least 1.5 HP.
• Release 5 seconds of water and swiftly swing the machine back and forth over the targeted area to evenly spread the slurry. (Note: keep the slurry thick; not too wet.)
• Polish slowly with a spiral motion moving from one end of the targeted area to the other and back.
• Continue polishing for 3-4 minutes.
• Then check the surface with a squeegee. You should have a high polish at this point.
• Next release just enough fresh water onto your target area to make vacuuming the used slurry easy.
• Then clean with a neutral cleaner such as MB-1 Floor Amore One Step Cleaner or MB-15 Stone Glow.
• Now repeat this process on next section.

Countertops:

• Target an area approximately 4 sq. ft.
• On the targeted surface, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of product in a circular pattern slightly smaller than the polishing pad you are using.
• Spray some water on the powder and over the rest of the targeted area.
• Set the speed of the right-angle grinder/polisher (variable speed is a MUST) to the slowest speed.
• Using a hog’s hair pad, move the machine over the targeted area slowly, applying steady pressure.
• Check the surface for results after approximately 2 minutes.
• If you have a high polish, semi-flush the section and pull the slurry down to next section and repeat.

Coverage: Depending on the type of stone, expect coverage of approximately 125 – 200 sq ft per pound.
