Currently we have these pads in our training center and have seen some of the same test Fred has seen and there are pretty unique. I just the other day received my shipment in and will be testing these pads on numerous stone including granite to see the results. Will let you know as we complete out testing and compare the result. I have been impress with what I have seen so far.

There is also a new system out there that I just saw that is incredible, two steps on marble and three steps on black absolute. The system is Cheetah Pads

Carl-is that stone hard-or soft.

Are the hard to polish spots soft?

we get all sorts of wacky stuff to polish.

Hertron makes a hardening agent and a calcium product along with a crystallizer that may work without steel wool-although the steel wool gives it better results.

The products are prime grind #2 the hardner

product A which is the calcium product and product M.

I know it sounds a bit odd but it works.

If you let the stone dry out before using the M component which is the crystallizer. You may be able to use steel wool with out getting any black marks. If you do get some of those black marks a little polishing compound will take them out.

The Burnisher with a 11000 grit pad sounds like the easiest option however.

Have you ever used Vortex pads-they have a 4 pad system that actually works.

I mean you cant compare it to a powder polish but it may get you off the job.

That's a thought but I don't know if the condo association will let me bring a burnisher in here

I'm trying everything in my bag of tricks, yours and Johns, they polished it in the factory so I'm trying to get a duplication or something close to it

Not sure if you can see it in this picture, but there are white crystal spots in the tile that won't polish. I tried 5 X, granite powder wet and also ran them dry, also tried to crystallize on top. Can't get these spots to Polish. Has anybody ran across this material and any suggestions would be appreciated. I have no idea what the name of the Marble is.
