Equipment and Materials:
175 RPM Floor Machine with Hardrock Drive Plate
Two natural/hog hair buffing pads
Spray bottle of water
Easy Mask or plastic sheeting for masking
Wet vac, mop, bucket, sponge, rags, etc.
Instructions:
Protect adjoining surfaces such as carpeting with masking material.
Plan to hone a maximum of about 15 square feet at a time.
2 scoops of Honing Powder will hone about 15 square feet. Adjust the amount of powder you use to cover the size of the area you are honing.
Sprinkle Honing Powder on the floor to cover an area about the size of the buffing pad.
Wet the powder with water to form a paste consistency while buffing.
Place the 2 buffing pads stacked one on the other and the machine over the powder and begin buffing. Buff on direction and that at 90 degrees to help get into low spots/lippage at the grout line. Buff about 5 minutes adding water as needed if the slurry begins to dry.
Flood the area with water and buff over one more time.
Remove residue with Wet Vac, mop and let dry
Check for desired results and repeat above if needed.
