Stu,

Good idea. How to scratch it again? You got any kids? Let them loose with some 100 or 220 grit diamond pads and some orange juice.

Subject: [sccpartners] marketing demonstration

Fred,
 
In the fall I plan to initiate a marketing campaign to the stone stores here in Austin Texas. My idea is to build a portable stone floor, maybe 6' x 6' or 8' x 8'.  I wanted the sales people in those stores to see a demo on what we can do with diamond encrusted pads.  I was thinking maybe travertine or marble.  I wanted to hone and polish for them in front of their very eyes, while they enjoy a lunch or breakfast at my expense.  This demo would take place in the warehouse area of these stores.  One question that I have for you would be "Once that I have polished a stone, how could I get it back to a scratched/etched condition so that I could do it again at the next demo. Also, any suggestions that you would have for this type of endeavor would be greatly appreciated.

General rule of thumb is the slower the epoxy cures the stronger the bond. So go for a 7 hour cure epoxy such as the Bonstone touchstone epoxy. if you can rod the pieces, thats what I would do.

Hi. Was wondering what the strongest epoxy for bonding to halves of a broken marble table would be. These are massive pieces and I'm afraid that the polyester epoxy I normally use will just not hold under the weight. The table will be supported by a metal frame.
Thanks
Baird
