Don,

 

One thing you may want to do is attach you diamonds onto a hog hair pad if you need to hone. This will allow the pad to go into the edges and hole and then as Fred said use 5X polish and polish the stone.

 

If you want to add some additional shine you could do a light crystallization to the floor .

It may be difficult to do without grinding the floor flat but you can try to do  hard polish with some 5x powder. Of course this will depend on how bad the cornors have rubbed off. Try this first. The next step would be to try a light hone with a 400 grit.  Tell the customer there is no guareentee.  If they want it the Dive in Look than they will have to pay for a full grind

hope someone can help, I have aprox. 2500 sq ft of a light marble 24x24. in shipment some of the corners rubbed the polish off. alot of the marble has already been installed and they would like not only to fix the corners but the lady would like the polish to be like she could dive into it!  the floor is pretty flat but there are slight height differences is some of the tiles. I'm trying to stay away from a full grind down but... What do you think
