CARL,
The crystallization and dark granite powder will do the trick.
Apply approximately ½ teaspoon of powder onto the countertop,
spray crystallizer onto the powder. use a #1 steel wool pad and smear the powder/paste
over the area you want to polish polish the powder into the stone until
completely gone, then add some additional crystallizer and the powder will come
back alive out of your pad. Do this until the powder is all gone. Then flip
over your steel wool pad and apply some more crystallizer and continue to
polish.
Another method is to us some MB 20 Polish, follow the
instructions and it will give you shine and color. If when you are done with
either method and you need some additional color use the Tenax Trepox colorant
and wipe in on the surface allow it to penetrate and buff off the excess residue
Try these options and see how they work for you.

When doing seams I was using the alpha system and final polishing
with black diaglow for granite and a lead/felt wheel and getting back to
factory,
This job, someone went in a tried to pop the shine up a little
bit on all the countertops in a kitchen and failed. Took the shine off
instead of popping it up.
I am trying to see if there is an easier method now to get back to
factory without the lead/felt and building up a lot of heat.
I know I can get it back the old fashion way but I am looking for
something easier with all the technology out there today.
Not sure if you can see it in the picture I am sending, but if you
look into the top light bulb you can see the right-side is still polished and
the left is where they dulled it.

Carl,
What are you currently using to polish black granite? How high
are you honing the stone to ?

Are there any new
polishes on the market for face polishing black granite back to a factory
finish?
