What is “resurfacing” and what are the benefits of resurfacing?
• Removes all large scratches, etching, stains, and discolouration • Removes worn and dull areas, surface sealants and coatings • Leaves new clean grout level with the surface of the tiles • Removes lippage between tiles • Restores a like ‘NEW’ natural high gloss reflection without the use of waxes • Provides a longer lasting gloss than a wax coating • Leaves the stone surface easier to clean How we do it: • Before the resurfacing process begins, technicians mask off adjacent carpets, walls, and cupboards so that the slurry produced by the polishing machines does not damage those areas • Diamond impregnated pads are used with a wet polishing machine to bring the stone back to its raw state. This is a gradual process using a number of grits until the desired finish is achieved. • Diamond polishing compounds, a floor polisher, and a wet vacuum are then used to restore the high gloss, mirror-like finish to the stone • Hand held polishers are used for showers and walls.
