Marble Polishing
Marble polishing is the last step in the marble restoration process. Many people who have marble in their home or business believe they need their marble polished, but in fact due to the accumulation of small scratches or etching of the marble, they may need their marble honed and then polished for best results.
Honing is the complex process of restoring your marble floor or other surfaces with the use of diamond encrusted pads to scratch, or hone the marble surface.
Honing marble first starts with a course grit diamond pad and continues with finer grits to attain the desired polished finish.
The last few honing steps actually are mechanically polishing the marble surface. Once the marble surface begins to have some reflective properties, the last step is marble polishing.
This step is actually chemically polishing the surface with a polishing powder, and only after the honing process, will it leave the best possible reflective polish.
An etch mark on marble occurs when an acidic liquid comes in contact with a marble surface reacting with the calcium in the marble. If the etch mark is not too bad, sometimes polishing the marble with the polishing powder can refinish the mark leaving a polished finish.
