Understanding the Objective
To achieve a high-gloss finish on concrete or terrazzo floors, precision and selecting the appropriate polishing pads are essential. Gloss involves not just shine but also clarity, depth, and uniformity throughout the surface. Using the right pad guarantees even light reflection and long-lasting durability after polishing.
Importance of Grit Progression
A proper sequence of grit levels is crucial for high-gloss finishes. Beginning with coarser flexible diamond polishing pads helps eliminate scratches and surface imperfections, while progressively finer grits smooth and refine the surface. Skipping grit stages or moving to finer grits too soon can cause swirl marks or dull areas, hindering the desired reflective quality.
Selecting the Appropriate Pad Material
The type and material of polishing pads significantly impact the final result. Resin concrete polishing pads are widely preferred for producing smooth, glossy finishes with excellent clarity. Hybrid bond diamond tools may be useful during intermediate steps, but resin pads deliver superior performance for the final high-gloss polish. Choosing pads specifically designed for the floor type—whether concrete, terrazzo, or natural stone—is vital for consistent outcomes.
