I didn't know MB made a diamond encrusted pad. What was done to the floor in your picture? How low did you start and what steps did you use?
I meant to say diamond pads. That pic is from one of the first times I worked on the floor, from metals to the 800 grit if I remember right.
Looks like everyone does things a bit diferent. I had called MB and told him I wanted 4 grits only. He recommended 100,200,400and 800. I don't think I've used the 200's yet but I will definitely keep you guy's expertise in mind as I am just a hack
This post for me was to try and find an alternative to doing a full restoration withouut causing frames. I've tested the honing powders with similiar results (loss of clarity) before but I thought I'd try it again.
That's where it appears that the mp's come in. The lady doesn't want to pay for a full restoration. You come in and make it better. No worries about picture frames because the mp's don't seem to bite enough into the stone to make it dull. Is it the equivalent to bonnet cleaning a pissed saturated carpet?.
I've only seen them in action once so I can't make an informed decision other then they didn't really do much with an op on that particular stone. Anyone try them with a 300 rpm or cimex and plenty of water?. If it doesn't peel it may do a better job then the 175. They may also have a place with green marble and other dolomitic types since they don't peel easy.
QUESTION FOR THE MF ATTENDEES, HOW WAS THE CLARITY?
