Our 8-Step Concrete Polishing Process
In Houston Concrete Polishing Company, the following steps are used for polished concrete flooring.
Step 1
We prepare the surface by grinding. This is done to remove whatever coating is on the concrete slab. A 16-20 grit diamond abrasive is usually used.
Step 2
If there are cracks or joints on the concrete surface, we seal them with a semi-rigid filler or an epoxy.
Step 3
We begin to grind the surface with a diamond abrasive. This is usually with a 30 - 40 grit metal bonded diamond. Then, this is followed by an 80-grit, a 150-grit, or finer.
Step 4
We apply a chemical hardener to densify the concrete surface.
Step 5
This is where the polishing starts. We begin to polish the surface with a resin bond diamond grit ranging from 100 - 200. In some cases, we combine both.
Step 6
We polish again using a 400 grit resin bond diamond. This is followed by an 800-grit
Step 7
We finish off with a 1500-grit or 3000 grit resin bond diamond. (whichever we use depends on your desired sheen level)
Step 8
This step is optional. We apply a stain guard to protect the concrete surface and make it easier to maintain.
