I think you might have to do it with your hand held for each tile you want to hone if you don&#39;t want to hone other tiles next to them.  I am not sure there is anything you can place on the stone that will withstand a floor machine and diamonds.  If it would stick, I am not sure you would want it to as it would probably be a nightmare trying to get off the stone when you are finished.<br>
<br>If you are using the hand held, you can use painters tape to create a protection on the tile you don&#39;t want to hone.<br><br>:)<br>Georgia Rivera<br>Stone Buff, LLC<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jun 1, 2009 at 11:19 PM, Zev Guez <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a target="_top" href="mailto:zev@stonerestorationplus.com">zev@stonerestorationplus.com</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>

I would like to hone the marble to remove the etching and cover the black granite . What would be the best thing to cover them with that will not come up with my diamond pads?<br clear="all">
