That might work, I haven’t ever heard that. A factory
gloss for the green stone with white veins is only around 45 to 55 gloss units.
Where other stones are easily 72 gloss units or higher. I would try the granite
powder it may pop the shine higher.
Good luck

Thanks Randy.
I have to drive over two and a half hours to this job so returning
another day is something I would rather not do.
Is crystallizing the only way to get a nice shine? I have heard
some would use a granite powder instead.

Jason:
Q. Any chance I can get away with not grinding or would this be too risky?
A.
If
your resin diamonds don’t chip up going over the lippage you can get away
with not grinding.
Q. Would I use diamonds
to remove the wax or use a stripper prior?
A. Stripper
Q. I am wondering what
to use to get the best shine?
A. Work your diamonds
up to at least 3500 resin, polish with a mild marble polishing compound, wait a
day for the stone to dry out come back and use a quality crystallizer to bring
up the shine.
Good luck

Hi
Guys,
I
am hoping to get as much feedback as possible for my first green marble job. It
is a bathroom 10 years old and has a couple stains. The customer has put
butchers wax on on a couple occasions. It has very minor lippage. Any chance I
can get away with not grinding or would this be too risky? Would I use diamonds
to remove the wax or use a stripper prior? I am wondering what to use to get
the best shine? I have MB-12, the new mb-20 cream for granite(curious if anyone
has used), or just a tin oxide powder? The adjacent walls are also marble so I
am hoping that I can get the floor dark again.
Thanks
for your feedback,
Jason
