Roger,

 

The honing powder will work , somewhat as well as diamonds. I always prefer diamonds over powders when honing out damage. You can get a 250 grit honing powder from StoneCare Central. They carry 100,250, 400,800,1800

 

Regarding the limestone, Roger when you were in training remember we used a hog hair pad and attached the diamonds onto the pad, I would use this method and the pad will follow the floor. If this is going to be a honed finished floor you may need to remove the damage with a lower grit diamond and then use honing powders to achieve the final finish.

 

If this did not answer all your questions , call me on my cell phone, I’m traveling this week and can talk to you as I drive

All   I was curious about scratch removal. Will 280 honing powders remove scratches as effect say as 220 diamonds. I use that as comparison since they do not know of any 280 diamonds. Or will honing powders remove scratches at all? 2ndly, I have a customer with a limestone floor that has a too rough of finish due to someone acid washing the floor.  I know that I can use diamonds say up 400 grit to give the stone a smooth finish followed with honing powders.  But my concern is unless I grind the floor flat I will not accomplish a consistent smooth finish on all the tiles. Is that a valid concern?   Thanks, RK
