Concrete polishing makes a normal cement floor smooth, shiny, strong, and dust-free. It’s widely used in homes, factories, showrooms, hospitals, and commercial buildings.
🔹 Step-by-Step Process
1️⃣ Surface Inspection
Check for cracks, holes, uneven areas.
Remove paint, tiles glue, epoxy, or coatings.
2️⃣ Heavy Grinding (Metal Bond Diamonds)
Use 30 / 50 grit metal pads.
Removes top weak layer and levels the floor.
3️⃣ Crack Filling & Joint Repair
Use epoxy or polymer crack filler.
Allow proper curing time.
4️⃣ Densifier Application
Apply lithium/sodium silicate densifier.
Makes concrete harder and increases shine.
Wait 6–8 hours drying.
5️⃣ Medium Grinding (Transition Pads)
Use 100 / 200 grit.
Smoothens surface and removes scratches.
