I know exactly what you mean, I find that
some factory honed finishes are left less than desirable. The tiles look great
individually but in a 500sqft lets say for example, they look dirty and filmy. Inconsistent
would be the better word. I also use a honing powder t render them
constant in appearance. I have tried simply using a stone soap and scrub
brush and although it does help it somewhat, its still inconsistent.

Honed Marble Floor !
|
Over the years I have had a
number of jobs removing the cloudy foggy look off of newly installed honed
limestone flooring. I have used 800 grit honing powders and the job came out
great. Now I’m looking @ a newly installed honed marble floor. Again it
is blotchy and cloudy looking. The homeowner wants a clean consistent look. My thoughts are that using 800
grit powders is over kill and I could accomplish the same with attaching a
scrub brush to my machine and use a good cleaner. Would appreciate any feedback!
Thanks, Roger Konarski |
