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.

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
