Care and Maintenance  

GRANITE GLOW®

Granite Glow® is a no-wax compound for the polishing of worn polished granite surfaces. Granite Glow® contains high quality abrasives. Granite Glow® does not replace diamond grinding of the granite surfaces; it is used as a part of a non-wax maintenance polishing system for polished granite surfaces.

To apply the Granite Glow® system, you need:

  1. Granite Glow®, and Buff & Go Plus®
  2. Floor Buffer (IS-17, 200 RPM weighted).
  3. Natural hair pads and steelwool pads grade 00

DIRECTIONS: OPTION I: WET POLISHING

  1. Cover baseboard, carpet, etc., with protective plastic and/or tape.
  2. Strip the floor (if needed) with Zoom or Strip & Go
  3. Wet granite floor (25 Sq. Ft.). Pour a small amount of the Granite Glow® compound on the floor (about 3 oz. for 10 Sq. ft.).
  4. The Granite Glow® mixture should make a slurry of "yogurt" consistency.
  5. Buff the slurry with a natural hair pad for about 15 minutes per 25 Sq. Ft.
  6. Check level of gloss with a squeegee. When the desired level of gloss is achieved, repeat the procedure in the adjacent area.
  7. Vacuum dry the Granite Glow® slurry. Wet again polished area and buff again with the same pad to loosen up excess residue.
  8. Vacuum dry, damp mop, let dry.
  9. When dry, polish with a dry white pad.
  10. When completely dry, mix a small amount of Granite Glow® (2 oz.) with a few drops of Buff & Go Plus® and buff with the grade 00 steel wool pad until the granite is polished and dry.
  11. Repeat the same procedure on the adjacent areas.

DIRECTIONS: OPTION II: DRY POLISHING

Place two ounces of Granite Glow® on the floor and buff immediately with the natural hair or felt "Zebra" pad until dry and polished. To reduce pad friction, if any, spray a few drops of water during the polishing process.
