Concrete polishing is not a new concept. Machines and technology that are used today for polishing concrete were originally made to polish stone and marble. It's only recently been discovered by the manufacturers of these tools that the same concepts can be used to polish concrete.

Why would one want to polish a concrete floor or anything concrete? Concrete is a very stable and sturdy material to make floors from. With the ability now to polish concrete and wax it making it shine just like marble, showroom floors that used to be dull and lifeless now take on a new quality of their own. Especially useful in car showrooms, concrete is easier to clean that stone or marble and with the polishing can look just as good as stone or marble.

Polishers work basically the same way on concrete as they do on stone or marble. The effect that the polishing tools have on the surface varies with weight, rotation of the tool and speed of the tool, as well as the polishing pad being used. Things such as cleaning between grit, density, direction of rotation and the speed at which the operator moves the machine also change the effect of the polisher on the concrete.

The final finish of a concrete floor will depend on the mix of gravel, sand, water and concrete in the mix. But for the most part, concrete surfaces can take on the luxurious glow of marble or granite, just at a lower cost.

Buffers and polishers for concrete surfaces are the same as those used for marble or stone or granite. Some concrete floors require a different grade of pads to polish and buff the surface, but the bridge saw machine is the very same one as used for other fine stone, marble or granite surfaces.
