In Sugar Land Polished Concrete and Staining Company, the following steps are used for polished concrete flooring.

We prepare the surface by grinding. This is done to remove whatever coating is on the concrete slab. A 16-20 grit diamond abrasive is usually used.

If there are cracks or joints on the concrete surface, we seal them with a semi-rigid filler or an epoxy.

We begin to grind the surface with a diamond abrasive. This is usually with a 30 - 40 grit metal bonded diamond. Then, this is followed by an 80-grit, a 150-grit, or finer.

We apply a chemical hardener to densify the concrete surface.

This is where the polishing starts. We begin to polish the surface with a resin bond diamond grit ranging from 100 - 200. In some cases, we combine both.
