Important Points regarding fixing of Marbles/ Granite

Polishing Methods for Marble & Natural Stone Floors

Explore the four primary techniques used to achieve a polished finish on natural stone surfaces.

Diamond grinding on marble
  • Uses industrial-grade diamond abrasives in 3–6 discs.
  • Mounted on a 175 rpm floor machine to grind the stone surface.
  • Removes scratches and evens out the surface.
  • Repeated with finer grits to achieve a mechanical shine.
  • Best for: Heavily worn or scratched floors needing restoration.

Crystallization process on marble
  • Uses fluorosilicate chemicals sprayed onto the stone.
  • Buffed in with steel wool pads using a 175 rpm machine.
  • Creates heat and friction to form glassy crystals on the surface.
  • Best for: Marble and calcium-based stones (not granite).

Buffing compounds for stone polishing
  • Uses fine powders like aluminum or tin oxide mixed with water.
  • Buffed into the stone with a weighted machine and hogs hair pads.
  • Often enhanced with oxalic acid for a crystallization-like effect.
  • Best for: Light restoration and shine enhancement.

Wax polishing on stone surface
  • Applies wax, acrylic, urethane, or polymer coatings to the surface.
  • Applied using mop, roller, lambswool applicator, or sprayer.
  • Buffed with high-speed burnishing machines for shine.
  • Not recommended for: Porous stones like limestone or travertine.
  • Best for: Temporary shine in commercial settings.
