Baird,
Does this machine have any head pressure? If so then it may
work. I find the larger auto scrubbers work better due to their size. The 24
inch auto scrubber is not going to give you much more productivity then using a
22 inch drive plate on your floor swing machine.

Interesting. John, how do you
set up the scrubber? I have a little used 24" tenant auto-scrubber that
I have been thinking about converting but not sure what it takes to get it
working right,

I would recommend you do this size job using a walk
behind scrubber to diamond hone with.
The additional time will depend upon the type of machine
you are using and the size of the machine and if you are using a walk behind
scrubber

Armand,
The mechanical polish id going to give you the shine,
however I think to get the glossy shine you may need to hone up to a 5500 or
8500
Once you cut the floor flat you should not have any
problems with the scratches on the edges. Make sure your first grind the floor
is totally flat. If the floor is not totally flat then you could have a problem
the scratches on the edges.

Hi
Guys
I
have been asked to grind flat, hone & polish 14,000 Sq. Feet of quartz tile
that is the whitest and shiniest I have ever seen.
The
owner has received the 12X24 tiles and is going to have them installed in his
high end shopping mall.
The
tile setter has found thickness inconsistencies and has determined the best
solution is to flatten in place and re polish.
I
have some sample tiles and am going to do a shop floor mock up on a piece of
plywood but before beginning would appreciate you input.
I
have worked on a similar textured and grainy tile – a sort of pink which
apparently came from India. My biggest problem with that stuff was that it
showed
edge scratching worse than anything I’d seen b4.
Intend
to do a complete mechanical diamond resin pad grind,hone polish all the way to
3000 to try to duplicate factory shine without reliance on
any
finishing powders.
Would
appreciate your input
Thank
You:
Armand
