Darek:
Thanks for your thoughts.
I will have to buy some of the other and compare. It never hurts
to try and better the end results.

I have tested hertron products and used marble supreme
but i don't like that product for most applications. Polishing paste from Stone
Care is much better product, you get much better results. Just tray to polish a
piece of marble with marble supreme and next to it with any other polishing
compound or powder and you will notice that hertron's product leaves like a
fake polish that dose not look natural almost like orange peal. That is just
MHO.

Hi Joe:
I have not tried that product.
I had a couple of issues with the website you mentioned, so I stop buying
there.
One thing I noticed after using
marble supreme and this was notice on monthly accounts I have is.
Stone walk ways of high traffic
didn't ugly out very fast, actually still looked great after one month. This is
to do with the hardening agents it has in the ingredients which is stated on
the front label and other good ingredient this company has added. One website
read that when most polishing agents take vital minerals out of stone this adds
them back in. It also has a stain protection built in.

Other thing I like is it
polishes stone fast for being one of the milder polishes I've used.
The only stone type I noted it
doesn't polish fast is the white with gray veins in it. So for that type stone
I use a hot 5x with about 30% oxalic acid added to the mix. That is if, I have
to sand down this stone ,but if I'm just polishing it I'll stick with marble
supreme.
Hope this is a help to you.
P.S.
Granite one step polish is out
of this world. After being dissatisfied with about 8 granite polished, this was
awesome stuff.

Randy,
Have you ever used the Stonecare
PRO Signature Marble Polishing Compound http://www.stonecarecentral.com/Marble_Polishing_Compound_p/a-scp-0875776-25.htm
. Does the Marble Supreme
from Regent work better?
Thanks
Joe

Hi Don:
1.
You might try a different polishing product, a little more mild. I have spent
many hours trying different types and have been using this product for a couple
years with great success .
http://www.regentstoneproducts.com/item_detail2.aspx?ItemCode=MARBLESUPREM
This is mild, polishes fast and has a nice smell.
2.
I would let your customer know prior to the work that there is a small chance
of the grout lines lightening some.
3.
You may try wetting the floor with water some before doing the polishing.
4.
After keeping customers expectation low concerning the grout, I personally
offer at additional cost removing grout and replacing it. It's easy to do.
I hope these points will help
out.

Good Morning All:
Do not know if this went out last week so I am repeating it. Any ideas on
how to maintain the integrity of grout color when powder polishing? Slurry
always seems to lighten it and cause issues with customers.
Thanks
