The existing concrete floor is being polished and treated with our Smart machine,pads and chemical products by numerous steps. We advise to make a sample on the actual floor. For a better understanding we advise to read the correspondingTechnical Data Sheets.

1. Check the surface condition 5 points on floor with test equipment and make a record.

2. Remove all contamination prior to start grinding the floor. Then grind the floor with diamond pad 30# until the floor is even(if the floor mohs hardness is 5 or more and you need quick cut ,you can use 16# pads)

3. Grind the floor with diamond pad 60# until the floor is even and ensure the scratches left by 30# diamond pads are removed

4. Clean the surface with scrubber or water and wait until the floor surface is dry, clean and no dust inside pores.
