Unfortunately, there are not to many ways to handle this floor. If you don’t tape off each section of floor where the finishes are then there is really no way to control overlapping onto the adjoining surface. the only other way to attack this floor would be to hand hone and polish each section. The other option is to leave the entire floor at a honed surface or the entire floor at a polished surface. It becomes the lesser of the two evils.
No matter what you do, the taping off or the hand machine route then Charge for it time is money. Don’t you just love designers that come up with these mixes.

Hi Guys. Have this job to bid where there is a lot of polished basalt next to honed. It has a LOT of wear and in some areas you can barely tell the two finishes apart. They want it all restored. Other than the obvious considerations, any ideas? I will not be taping tiles off, there is about 3500 sf.
