The finish and where you stop depends upon the finish the customer wants , some want polished , some want honed,

I agree with John the only difference is our clients usually want at least a 400 hone finish, so we hone not used just a hog hair pad always went on to a 400 hone.

If the liquid is latex mix to like pancake batter. We usually float the floor after 200 resin. Give at least 12 hrs set time.

Hello partners. We are working on the restoration of a travertine floor. I recently purchased a gallon kit of Bonstone Traverfill, which is a two part material involving both powder and liquid. I tried to find the recent thread where this was discussed, but for some reason I cannot find it.  The instructions are fairly vague.  They suggest either a mixture of 1 .5 liquid to 5 parts powder by weight, or 2 parts liquid to 7 parts powder by weight.  There has to be a better way to gauge the mixture. 

 

Also, they do not suggest a curing time. 

 

We have cut the floor to 100 grit and my plan is to test some of the areas. Am I on track if I fill after 100, cut the floor with 200 and then continue honing or polishing as necessary?  How long do I have to let this stuff dry?

Thanks

Baird
