Granite Black Honing Powder (1 LB) - MB Stone Professional®
Granite honing powder, made from black silicon carbide, enhances the appearance of honed granite surfaces. This powder produces a smooth, uniform finish and is essential in stone restoration, used by both professionals and DIY enthusiasts.
Granite Black Honing Powder is available in Coarse (70 Grit). All powders are packed by weight and not by volume.
Purpose and Applications of Granite Honing Powder
Granite honing powder is primarily employed to remove unsightly factory-made grinding swirls from various types of honed stones, including travertine tiles, Durango travertine, Saturnia stone, and honed granites like Black Absolute. Its main goals include:
- Producing a Uniform Finish: The honing powder smoothens rough spots and imperfections, resulting in a consistent texture across the stone surface.
- Eliminating Factory Swirls: It effectively reduces or eliminates the visible swirls left by diamond abrasives during the honing process.
This makes it an ideal solution for restoring the beauty of natural stone surfaces, ensuring they look their best.
Ease of Use
Granite honing powder is easy to use, compatible with various polishing machines and pads like solid felts or nylon polishing pads. Its straightforward cleanup makes it ideal for both professional and home restoration projects.
DIRECTIONS ON PROPER USE
- Clean the surface, to be honed, from any debris, sand, and dirt.
- Protect surfaces that could be damaged by splatters with proper masking material.
- The surface to be honed must be stripped from any possible topical coating or crystallizer
- For COUNTERS, target area 2 – 3 sq ft and use ½ teaspoon of powder. Place powder in a circular pattern smaller than the pad and add enough water to make a heavy cream-like paste. Place a hog’s hair pad onto the product. Using a right-angle grinder/polisher, keep the speed at no more than 900 RPM (600 RPM is best) and apply as much pressure as the machine can take before slowing to a stop. Follow a consistent, pre-determined working pattern to ensure an even final result.
- For FLOORS, the target area of 10 – 12 sq ft and use 2 ozs of powder. Place powder in a circular pattern smaller than the pad. Position the floor machine with a hog’s hair on top of the powder, then release enough water from the machine tank to form a heavy cream-like paste. While working the honing powder on the floor, keep a consistent, pre-determined working pattern, as if you were honing with diamond pads, to ensure an even final result. The proper floor machine should weigh between 130 and 160 lbs. and spin at no more than 175 RPM.
- Keep the slurry wet by adding water when necessary. Add powder as needed.
Keep working the slurry on the stone surface until the desired result has been achieved. Rinse well and pick-up the water using a wet/dry vacuum cleaner
