Marble polishing is a treatment that aims to increase the brightness of the stone especially in cases where the marble floor is opaque or yellowed, for example when the marble is installed outdoors and is therefore exposed to direct sunlight or subjected to the constant action of atmospheric agents. Marble polishing is nothing more than the actual removal of the surface and worn layer of the marble floor which allows to obtain a smooth, intact and uniform surface again. Shining is another step of marble polishing whose aim is to restore the lustre and beauty of the stone which, over time and with continuous treading, may decrease. Both terms tend to be used indistinctly. Marble polishing is a process that combines the use of chemical products and abrasive equipment: a professional granite and marble polishing machine called “sander” with increasingly finer-grained discs. In the final phase of marble polishing, chemical products are added in order to obtain a “mirror” polished marble surface.
PERIODIC POLISHING FLOOR
In order to keep your marble at their original appearance and protect from staining, scratching and etching we can attend you at scheduled intervals (high or low frequency visits) to maintain and re-polish your marble areas, so you will not have to spend on full restoration year after year.
The comprehensive maintenance plan will not only restore the original luster and shine, but also protect and bond so by increasing the longevity of the surface.
The basic maintenance plan will include the buffing with diamond compound, this will restore surface shine. To alter the cost we can customize the plan, for example, we can maintain high traffic areas more frequently than full area or we can do full restoration on less frequent base.
