But there is always floors with a lot of lippage  and the diamond impregnated pad won't get into that lower area.
So in some cases you will still need those powders on your truck.

Yeah mikes right-no reason to use honing powders when you can finish a floor like this dry with a diamond impregnated pad.

I'd go with Baird's plan of attack. It is hard to beat the monkey pads these days. I rarely use honing compounds anymore, too messy and can stain the grout.

We just finished a floor that is almost identical. A medium glossy satin finished limestone. We just used a 1500 grit monkey type pad over a natural stone cleaner and then hand cleaned the grout where necessary with brushes. Came out looking great.
