CONCRETE POLISHING FOR FLOORS
A polished concrete floor will make use of a comparable progressive grinding and sealing technique as epoxy, but polishing it smooths the cement into a shiny, semi shine or matte finish after sealing. Concrete floors that are polished use a similar grind and seal process as epoxy floors – except that buffing concrete with progressively finer grit, refines the cement into a shiny, semi shine or matte finish. Concrete overlays are being used extensively, and you’ll also see them in shopping malls. Pigments can be applied to polished concrete floors, and are available in a variety of green and brown tones found in nature along with yellows, blues and reds. This makes a wide variety of color options available.
