From the picture it looks like the slate has one of two thing
going on. 1 this could be efflorescent coming up through the grout line seeing
from the pictures most of the problems seem to be around the grout. 2 the floor
still has a grout film on it. You need to look at this job first hand. Take some
chemicals that will remove the efflorescent or the grout film. If this does not
work then perhaps you may need to do some other work on this materials. >From the
pictures it does not look like a bad hone from the supplier.

Subject: [sccpartners] Slate Tile Buffing
I have not gone to see this in person, but we were sent these
pictures of Kota Green honed India Slate that they said was installed this
way. That the factory poorly finished some tiles and were accidentally
installed. They now want us to re-hone and finish the floor. Any
thoughts, has anyone done anything like this before?
