DIRECTIONS

The following are AVERAGE directions. Different stones may require different techniques. If you are in doubt, don’t hesitate to call 

1. Prepare the surface to be polished by honing it to the highest clarity possible.

2. Protect surfaces that could be damaged by splatters with proper masking material.

3. FLOORS: Target an area of approximately 10 sq. ft. In the middle of the target area, sprinkle approximately 2 oz. of product in a circular pattern slightly smaller than the diameter of the floor machine. Using a hog’s hair pad, position the floor machine with water on top of the powder. The machine cannot exceed 175 RPM for best results and needs at least 1.5 HP. Release 5 seconds of water and swiftly swing the machine back and forth over the targeted area to evenly spread the slurry. (Note: keep the slurry thick; not too wet) Polish slowly with a spiral motion moving from one end of the targeted area to the other and back. Continue polishing for 3-4 minutes. Then check the surface with a squeegee. You should have a high polish at this point. Next release just enough fresh water onto your target area to make vacuuming the used slurry easy. Then clean with a neutral cleaner such as MB-1 Floor Cleaner or MB-15 Stoneglow. Now repeat this process on next section.

4. COUNTER TOPS: Target an area approximately 4 sq. ft. On the targeted surface, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of product
in a circular pattern slightly smaller than the polishing pad you are using. Spray some water on the powder and over
the rest of the targeted area. Set the speed of the right-angle grinder/polisher (variable speed is a MUST) to the slowest
speed. Using a hog’s hair pad, move the machine over the targeted area slowly, applying steady pressure. Check the
surface for results after approximately 2 minutes. If you have a high polish, semi-flush the section and pull the slurry
down to next section and repeat.

COVERAGE: Depending on the type of stone, expect coverage of approximately 125 – 200 sq. ft. per pound.
