DIAMOND GRINDING The Five Points: 

DIAMOND GRINDING The Five Points The only procedure with a “factory finish” The most difficult technique that requires skill and practice Should be performed solely by stone restoration professionals The most expensive procedure The only way to remove ‘lippage’

Slide28: 

WHEN DO YOU NEED TO HEAVY-DUTY GRIND AN OLDER STONE FLOOR? The stone floor is too scratched & too worn rendering the crystallization or the compound polishing techniques useless. This excess wear usually occurs in high traffic areas every 5 to 10 years in commercial buildings. When this condition appears, there is no other option but to grind the stone to restore it to the factory finish
