While on the subject of impala black… Is there a method for
removing metal scuffs. There is a floor I looked at today and it was marked
from cleaners using a vacuum, and scuffed it with what appears to be aluminum.
I tried an abrasive cleaner, no luck.

I’m not sure I would use balck motor oil, however if you want to
go that way call me or Fred and we can tell you how to darken sealers using
bolied linseed oil. If you do use boiled linseed oil mixed with a solvent based
sealer
BE CAREFUL THE BOILED LINSEED OIL HAS A LOW FLASH POINT. DON’T
EVEN LET APPLICATOR OR ANTHING WITH THE SEALER AND THE LINSEED OIL IN YOUR
TRUCK OR WAREHOUSE IT WILL BURN!!!!!!

Subject: [sccpartners] Impala Black granite
We
have a customer with a lot of Impala Black on their landscape boxes and
pillars. The bottom of the stone has a bit of spalling and has turned to
a a light color. They are hoping to have this refinished.
It
is about 10 years old and has never had any maintenance done. I believe
that the light color may be effloresence, but is right next to a walk and
driveway that is salted in the winter.
I’m
looking for suggestions to save the customer having to replace the stone.
They are not expecting it to look perfect, but would like the color back.
See
attached picture
Thank
you
