Hi Eric, the epoxy is not my problem, it's the polish... I've polished a lot of Quartz too and this is the only one I've had problems with.It's not a high Shine, more of a Med to low sheen polish. Like a travertine honed with a 1200 grit honing powder. But the hone powder didn't do anything at all neither did the other polishing compounds.I have polished quartz successfully.
The most pure white epoxy I have found is the gran quartz white knife grade. The trick with white quartz is the fact that its not actually white! Under certain lighting 90% of white ES quartz on the market has a pinkish tone. Only recently have the big ES manufactures started producing a “pure” white stone.
When looking eye level at this stone does it have the snake skin finish?
Thank You,
Eric Vogel

Hi Eric, yes all the miter seams need to be redone. Or they will make them reinstall all 10 counter tops in the house. I have to make a white epoxy that matches closer in all the seams & joints and refinish it flush.
Half the seams have diamond swirl marks from 120 & 220. Getting them out is very difficult because they are so hard to see with out a halogen light.
Then the Diamond pads leave skid mark on the white Quartz when they get too dry. I tried to minimize the water because they have natural finish unsealed wood floors!!! Every things masked but still... Ridiculous working conditions!
Eric have you polished this Quartz before?

Hey pro's has anyone polished this type of Quartz? It doesn't polish out like many others I've done.
It almost looks like a pearl white. I diamond honed to 1500 then I used Di-glo, 5x, 1200 hone powder & a few others. Nothing works... any ideas?
