What types of polished concrete do you offer?
There are a wide variety of choices for our clients when it comes to polished concrete in their property. The most preferred amongst clients is the premium level polished concrete finish that gives a very chic, high gloss surface without flaws and is the best for indoor environments. Other finish options include the standard level polished concrete finish that is budget-friendly and work on existing slabs for best results and have somewhat more surface flaws. Then there is the basic level polished concrete finish, where although surface imperfections are visible, but the polishing technique ensures a satin shine and is great for both indoor and outdoor environments.
Can existing concrete floors be polished?
Any concrete floor, which is in prime condition, can be polished whether it is new or old. However, any existing floor requires to be primed before polishing. Not only the dirt and grime are required to be removed from the surface, but also small blemishes need to be corrected and pores need to be sealed. Usually, a densifier is added to the concrete prior to polishing to make the surface less porous to moisture and stains and reduce future damages.
What is the process for concrete polishing?
- Surface preparation: This step is for both old and new surfaces where cracks, stains, blemishes, uneven spots, etc. are removed by grinding using grits 30, 70 or 120, followed by smoothening with 0, 100 or 200 grits of resin pads.
- Applying fillers and densifiers: In the second step, a dye can be applied to add colour to the concrete as also any cracks or pores are filled up with appropriate sealants. A concrete densifier is added to further protect the surface from moisture penetration or staining.
- Honing: Now the surface is polished or honed with a resin of 400 grit to start giving shine and brightness.
- Final polishing: A highly glossy floor is achieved in the fourth step where the concrete is further polished with 800, 1500 and finally 3000 grits resin.
- Protection: The polished concrete surface is then cleaned and buffed for extra shine using a burnishing pad and then coated with stain-guard products for durability
