How it is done
Grinding with progressively finer diamonds, densifying, polishing and a guard finish.
Where it works
Warehouses, retail, offices and homes.
What to expect
The slab's history shows. A coating hides more.
Is it slippery?
No more than sealed concrete when dry.
How do I clean it?
Dust mop and neutral cleaner.
A good choice for warehouses
Unsealed warehouse slabs shed dust onto stock and equipment. Densifying and polishing stops the dusting and makes floors easy to sweep and scrub. The reflective surface can also brighten a dim building.
Retail and offices
Storefronts on Long Beach Boulevard and Atlantic Avenue get steady foot traffic. Polished concrete handles that traffic without the wear lanes that show up on coated floors, and it only needs regular scrubbing.
Homes
A polished floor in a converted garage or an open living area gives a modern look and stays cool in warm weather.
Cost over time
Polished concrete has no topcoat to replace, so the long-term upkeep cost is low. For a business that wants to set it and forget it, that is a strong argument.
