The lowest grit was 120... I think. We do a lot of trav strips and most of the time the klindex brushes will work the best. I have to follow up with a 220g resin bond diamond to get the clarity back though. Those brushes can change the texture pretty quick.

Yeah we use it on thick multiple coated.floors that can be a pia.
Stripping is never fun no matter how its done.
The faster the better.
Have you ever used 80 grit honing powder?

I use it to warm up the water when the house water heater can't keep up. I've poured it in the machine tank it does really well but only after a 15min dwell time.  

Never tried the plastic idea. Ill give that a shot next time. 

Does it work on slate and flagstone strips?

Turkey fryer...
You can cook the steipper by laying it down and then covering with plastic.
Can come back hours later or next day.
Lift plastic and strip.
Works great.

I do the same as stu with the honing powder. Another process would be to use the 120 to 220grit brushes on a lighter swing machine. 5 or 6 of the klindex brushes are what I use. Hot water is also a big help. The bucket heaters or even a turkey fryer on some of the nasty strips. Re wet with a sprayer.

Yeah it eats the glue on the diamond pads.
The diamonds hydroplane on the coating slop anyway.
Use 150 grit or lower honing powder with your favorite fiber pad.
Mop on the stripper toss in the honing powder place mahine with pad on top of the powder and strip.
Wear anti slip booties.
Let us know what you think.
Hot water works best.

A lot of the floors we look at have wax on them.  Heretofore, We have always stripped them first with with black stripping pads and water based stripper, and then we proceed to use the diamond encrusted pads.  Does anyone have experience with putting diluted stripper in the water tank of a swing machine, and dropping that into to the pad to 1.) lubricate the honing process and 2.) strip at the same time. We would do this at the 400 grit level of honing.

There are several reactions that can cause this to happen
1, Too much hardener
2. UV light
3. Wet stone
4. Old glue

this is why I would prefer epoxy over polyester
