After the concrete slab has been polished, the surface can be protected with a stain guard. Wet vs. dry method When it comes to the diamond polish and concrete grinding process, wet vs. dry methods have their benefits and drawbacks. Wet polishing is faster and can remove a significant layer of concrete.  It is also easier to clean than a dry polish. In addition to being cleaner, dry polishing can also be vacuumed. However, wet polishing can cause problems with debonding and can leave gouge marks on the floor. While both methods are effective, wet polishing can be a time-consuming process. It also requires more tooling. Wet polishing requires a water s

Polished Exposed Aggregate Concrete

  Different Types of Aggregate Concrete Finishes When you're ready to start pouring concrete, you'll want to know about the four types of aggregate finishes : Salt and pepper, No-exposure, and Seeded. Which one is right for your home? There are many advantages to each, and we'll discuss them below. For more information, check out the links at this article's end.  We hope this article has helped you make the right choice! Here's some advice: Salt and pepper Two aggregate finishes are available for concrete floors: coarse and fine.

Both types of aggregates are exposed.  A fine aggregate finish will be the most noticeable, but a coarse aggregate will give a more antique look. Fine aggregate is often the preferred finish for polished or architectural floors, allowing for greater exposure to the aggregates within the concrete mix. Unlike polished concrete, a salt and pepper
