Hi John,
I know it's hard to tell by the picture but the marble is finished already like that before the installation. The ends of the tile are rounded over, and the finish on the face of the tile is pitted and groove. It is similar to a tumbled marble.

Freddie ,

 

The rounded edges has been caused from previous honing. The floor had some lippage and instead of removing thelippage the hone the stone thus causing the rolled edges. This is not uncommon to see from time to time.

 

Just hone and polish as you normally would .

Hi partners,
I want to hone and polish this floor. It dosnt have a flat finish and the marble is rounded at the edges. Can I hone with resin diamonds the same as I would with flat finish? There are scraches and etch marks that need to come out. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
