Of course they will never look as good, but not as ugly as etching. I know that the experienced stone restoration guy will often have much higher standards than the customer.
Sent from my iPhoneSome surfaces are just meant for topical coatings like saltillo , terracotta ,slate, concrete and others.Marble,Limestone and Travertine surfaces seem to look not natural when topicals are applied.Besides that there is a chance they will fail-Risky Business in my opinion unless you write a good contract.I like TK 6-I haven,t used it on marble yet.On Fri, Feb 19, 2016 at 5:07 PM, Richard Middleton <richard@prosteem.com> wrote:Stu can you use the TK6 on marble counter tops to prevent etching in kitchens?

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

If the guy isn't that smart he will supply it to the client

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.
