Baird, yes I cleaned and extracted twice. Then I made the 1st cut with vortex red dot and they extracted the slurry. 
Next day I did grout repair. 
3rd day I used 220 diamonds to clean up the excess grout and finished with #1 vortex

Maybe stupid question, but do you clean (get truck mount guy in etc.  ) before or after any honing and/or polishing?

Just did an 800 sq ft travertine floor that was installed in 1920 and was really dirty. I used Stu's technique and hired a truck mount extractor company to work with me for half a day for $300. Floor came very nice. Some of the big holes remained a little dark but I ended up filling them in when I did the grout repair. Customer was very happy.
Some before and after pics
