This marble polishing job we recently completed was a crema marfil marble floor in a South Brunswick
Before
NJ residence that had scuffed up areas in the marble foyer due to construction. Notice the huge contrast in these before and after pics and how before there is obvious scuffs in the marble mosaic medallion which actually contained granite inlays as well. Marble loses its shine due to wear from scratches and marks as well as spills and improper cleaning products that are not suitable for marble. This causes it to etch and leave dull spots and marks. Many people think that these marks are stains in the marble or stone. In reality they are not stains rather just a thin layer of the marble surface was removed by the improper cleaning product. A natural stone restoration professional can restore this by refinishing with diamonds otherwise known as honing and polishing to a high sheen. Many glamorous halls and buildings have highly polished marble floors. Many times it is terrazzo which has no grout joints separating it. This has a sleek appearance that spreads like glass. Even with grout lines if they are thin and the grout color matches to blend properly it can have a similiar effect. Color sealing grout can achieve this by customizing the grout color desired without the need to remove or change grout. Furthermore this will enable easier maintenance by rendering the grout stain proof.
