Marble Polishing Powder

A special product formulated for the professional user. Marble Polishing powder based on oxalates and special additives.

Properties
Marble Polishing Powder transforms calcium particles in the surface of the stone, making them easy to polish. The polish is renewed and the surface once again has a high gloss finish.

Field of Use: For touching up dull patches and for renewing worn off polishes on marble, travertine and other calcium containing stones such as carrara, thassos, ajax, etc. as well as terrazzo and agglo marble.  Not suitable for granite, quartzite, artificial stone, etc.

Directions for Use

Preparation: The surface to be treated must be clean and free of polymers, acrylates and wax layers. Use cleaner or stripper to thoroughly clean the surface. For touching up small surfaces or patches it is possible to polish by hand. This will only lead to a lower level of gloss; it is preferable to use a polishing machine. On smaller surfaces we recommend polishing machines with approx. 1000 rpm.  For floors, a one disc polishing machine with approx 140 to 180 rpm, 90 to 110 lb pressure is necessary.  Always use a white nylon polishing pad. Optimal results can be achieved on surfaces pre sanded with a 300 to 400 polish.  Treat larger surfaces in segments of max 100 to 150 ft².

Execution: Wet the surface with plenty of water. Spread a small quantity of Marble Polishing Powder and immediately start polishing. When the product turns pasty, add some water and continue polishing until the desired gloss level is reached. Then immediately rinse the surface with alkaline cleaner diluted 1:10 to 1:20 and remove the solution with a wet and dry vac or cloth. Do not allow any product residues to remain on the surface.

Advice: It may be advisable to wet the surface with alkaline cleaner rather than with water. This reduces the risk of matte stains due to splashes on already polished surfaces.
On small areas, Marble Polishing Powder can be mixed with alkaline cleaner to form a paste, which is easier to use.

Please Note: sensitive surfaces such as wood, parquet, carpets, etc. must be protected against splashes.  Some types of stone difficult to polish. Always try the product in an inconspicuous area prior to use. Deep scratches can not be removed.
