I am not interested in the product from the competitor. They only tested it for a few months, and against etching, which ANY coating will protect against. I know the Richard james products will be better. 

I will look into the festool, I know it is a great set up, not worth the investment for me now just doing a sample. I know the prep work will be the most important step tho.  

Cheers,  Mike

We use TK 6 on concrete countertops
It works well after it cures
You can use 2/3 coats and the top it off with super top

See if your client can get the MSDS from the other contractor and give you a copy. That should tell you what the other guy is using.
If the guy isn't that smart he will supply it to the client

Mike, 

I picked up 2 Festool orbital sanders and a vac from a local woodworking store. Used them dry with screens ( different grits) to complete a project at the National Archives here in DC. They do a great job honing, quickly,  cleanly and consistent finish. Just something to look into. Good luck.

I have a client with 41 units all with marble kitchens. They don’t want to pay for Clearseal, and my CrystalCote film didn’t hold up to his slicing with a knife (go figure).
 
They had someone come in and do some sort of topical and they said it is doing well. They want a bid from me to do the same which I will do shifting all liability of possible short lifespan off to them. 
 
I was thinking of using TK6 from Richard James, after prep sanding with a 120 or 220 nickel pad. or a random orbital with paper. I have to see what the sealer will fill in. 
 
Any ideas regarding methods, prep, application pads, etc?
 
This is the stone, like a white breccia something.
