Roger.
This is a general rule when polishing 90% of all marbles, there
are similar rules for honing process. Whenever you bid job you should be
able to predict the time it will take to do each hone and polish. There
is a science to this process and I call tell you it works. This process is how I
figured all my jobs from the smallest job to the largest job and I have hone
and polished projects as large as 22,000 sq ft and predicted the time it would
take to complete the project to the day.
I might be to your advantage to and the advantage to all
partners to take 1 of my classes that deal with these process. I have been
talking with Debbie and I will be offering a class in the near future, that
will teach these process and others process that will make bidding and pricing
simple and predictable.
If you and any of the partners are interested please let me
know, I will put this class together for the partners only, remember I only
take 8 students at a time.
Hope this information helps

John, Is this your general rule when polishing most marbles? "Then
try using approximately 2 to 3 ounces of 5 X powder for every 10 sq.ft polish
this area for approximately 4 minutes try using this process and I
thing you will find the stone will pop the shine and clarity you and you
customer are looking for." Thanks, RK
For
all the brown marbles I have ever worked on I never go higher than a 800
grit. Then
I prefer using 5x powder the MB12 may be too hot and you are actually burning
the stone because the powder is too hot. The
other item would be how long are you stay on a section of stone, you maybe
over polishing and thus loosing you shine and clarity Try
re honing the stone from a 400 to 800, this would remove any burning
you may have inflicted into the stone. Then
try using approximately 2 to 3 ounces of 5 X powder for every 10 sq.ft polish
this area for approximately 4 minutes try using this process and I
thing you will find the stone will pop the shine and clarity you and you
customer are looking for. Hope
this helps John E.

Stoneworks [mailto:ray@majesticstoneworksaz.com] Hello We are working on
brown italian marble and using MB12. But MB12 is making marble very
hazy. Any suggestions on what may be the problem? Thank you for your
feedback. Ray Jones Majestic Stoneworks 623-580-8895 offc 602-570-9821 cell 623-580-8897 fax Powered by http://DiscussThis.com
