Concrete can be polished with Mechanical Grinders using diamonds of increasing grit sizes. Diamond pads come in many grit or mesh sizes. Concrete diamond grits start with 6 grit and can go up to 3000 grit although concrete can only maintain a shine of about 800 grit, it can be helped by adding a concrete hardener such as sodium silicate, lithium silicate which will allow concrete to hold a 1800 through 3000 grit shine.The work is accomplished in multiple stages by passing over the concrete with successive grit diamonds until it has a hard-glassy finish.
We practice all types of concrete staining. Depending on the project, and the condition of the existing concrete, we have a large selection of materials to accomplish the desired look. We can use Acid Stain, Water or or Acetone based stains and dyes, and even more opaque floor stains and colored sealers when needed. The sealers are water or solvent based. All I need to know is what type of look you are going for whether it is a ‘modern’ / ‘contemporary’ look or a more ‘rustic’ appeal. Either way, we can give you the coolest most unique floor if that's what you are looking for!
