Concerns With Granite Polishing

working with granite is difficulte because it is so hard

Granite is a hard, volcanic material. It's created in the earth's crust, in very high temperature and pressure, making its exceptional durability. Whilst the composition of Granite may differ, you can find prevalent hard elements like silica, quartz and feldspar present in all Granite aside from where it is from. Even though Granite is hard, it can be damaged. Marks and etching will eventually result in dullness. But scuffed Granite does not have to be changed.

Many tile organisations will not deal with Granite. But our professionals understand Granite's uncompromising personality, and have the proper machinery and processes to get it looking its very best once again. We are able to revitalize Granite surfaces to remove the damage, unveiling a new damage-free surface.

Our specialist technicians have machinery specifically designed for Granite refinishing. They could make a cosy, inviting matt or honed finish, a amazing, mirror gloss, or a finish in between.

Granite Floor Polshing - The Process

If the your Granite has just started to lose its shine, it could be possible to bring back the shine by just polishing.

Special Granite polishing powders and creams incorporating minute abrasive grit.

The creams and powders are massaged to the floor using special polishing disks and very heavy buffing apparatus weighing in at 100kgs and above.

The polishing paste removes minute scuffs and scratching and polishes the top to a high shine. This technique will likely not get rid of noticeable scratches or dull patches.

Granite Honing And Polishing

Scratches and dull patches in Granite will need to be taken out with diamond honing before the Granite can be polished. Granite honing takes heavy honing equipment with diamond-filled disks.

The diamonds take out a small amount of Granite from the finish of the Granite tiles, exposing a new, smooth top, set for polishing.

In the event that the Granite tiles are irregular, with lippage, or if there are deep scratches the Granite ought to be ground before starting the honing process.

Granite will want a full restoration if you have any damage, scratches or lippage. Irregular tiles can be an eyesore, and perhaps, a slip hazard. Metal diamond machinery removes the top, (also referred to as lippage removal) to leave a flat, flat finish working with diamonds encased in a soft metal matrix, built to remove a lot of of stone.

Grinding is a highly aggressive and time intensive undertaking, only to be performed by industry experts with the proper equipment and training. When you finish grinding, a dark-colored floor will be almost white because of the deep scratches caused by the grinding .

As soon as your Granite surface is ground level, you can have the finish you want, honed, high-polish, or somewhere in between.

Granite Cleaning And Sealing

When you search on the internet, you'll find many views and recommendations for sealing Granite worktops and Granite floors. The main reason is that lack of knowledge concerning the stone and exactly how sealers work.

Almost all of the dark coloured top quality granites like; brown, black, green or blue really should not want sealing. However, as Granite is a natural stone, variations in permeability can occur, so we always recommended confirming the porosity of those varieties known to be particularly dense.

Checking a Granite for porosity is fairly painless. Put a little amount of water on the granite, let it work for half an hour then wipe clean. If the pool gives a dark area, the granite ought to be sealed. If the puddle doesn't leave a darker area, then the Granite does not want to be sealed.

Then again, granite floors always want sealing, because tile grout is porous. In the event your Granite is porous, we are going to seal your Granite with a premium Granite Sealer. The Sealer makes its way into the Granite, making a powerful protection.
