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. The same look as polished concrete flooring can be achieved with decorative concrete overlays, where the finish is more easily controllable in application and result.
