Hi Stephen,
Interesting method but why would it be necessary to do that in
this case? And what was your reasoning or what were you attempting to do when
you did all that? Did you have a grout problem?

Ron,
I would maybe pre seal with a water based sealer, let cure then diamond polish
to the highest clarity possible then tint your powder to match the grout
with a concrete coloring powder or similar and use your spinner extractor. Years
ago I did this on raven slate with black grout and it worked well. aloha

All,
I looked @ a job of a newly installed polished mosaic
marble floor. They used sanded grout. The floor was etched slightly when they
used vinegar to clean off the grout film. The real problem is that the small
tiles have a lot of scratches. In the past I have had no problem restoring
marble floors with sanded grout. But this floor is not 12X12 tiles. Can I
restore this floor without having the grout replaced with unsand grout? I
thought of using my 13 inch floor machine, starting with 120 grit diamonds.
The reason for using my 13 inch floor machine is that I’ve been told that a
smaller diameter floor pad is less likely to leave picture framing. I do
place a white pad between the machine and diamonds. . After 800 polish with
polishing powder. I normally use 5X, but I’m concerned about 5X impacting the
color of sanded grout. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Please see attached photo.
Thanks,
Roger Konarski
