Diafil Marble Polishing Powder | Why Diafil

Diafil is one of Italy's biggest manufacturers of diamond polishing pads. The new Diafil Marble Polishing Powder was introduced to the market a few years back and has made a great impact within the professional marble polishing industry. This outstanding quality polishing powder has a number of advantages that other types of marble polishing powders don`t have. The product can be applied after the surface was grinded with a grit 800 diamond polishing pad. Most other types of marble polishing powders can only be applied after the surface was polished with pad 1600 or 1800 grit. It reduces the time needed to finish a job and it increases productivity. The product requires less cleaning. After a surface is polished with the new Diafil Marble Polishing Powder, it will not require a lot of washing and cleaning to achieve that spectacular gloss finish. It responds very well to burnishing and regular maintenance with fine grit diamond polishing pads. It costs less and it covers more surface than other marble polishing powders.

Diafil Marble Polishing Powder | Where To Use It

The new Diafil Marble Polishing Powder is compatible with all marble floors and all travertine floors. It will create a beautiful natural looking sheen that is known to last for many years even on commercial and very high traffic floors. The product cannot be scratched and it has a superior resistance to harsh chemicals. Highly recommended for polishing and maintaining hotel receptions, corridors, shop floors, patios, offices, pubs, restaurants, residential floors, etc. It can be used by professionals and DIY users assuming that a wet vac and a low speed floor buffer is used.

Diafil Marble Polishing Powder | How To Use It

Surface preparation is essential. All imperfections and all old sealers have to be removed in full. Pretty much the same preparation routine applies to marble and travertine floors. The only difference is the fact that the travertine is more porous so the surface has to be finished with an 1800 grit diamond polishing pad before polishing it with the new Diafil Marble Polishing Powder. The marble floor can be treated after grit 800.

1. Apply 2-3 scoops of powder per 1 sq meter of floor
2. Pour some water on the power to create a creamy composition
3. Using a low speed floor buffer and a white pad, start buffing the composition
4. With the buffer rotating, move around the area 5-7 go`s
5. Spend the same amount of time on each tile | area
6. Make sure to maintain a creamy composition at all times. Add more water if needed
7. After done with the buffing, extract all the waste with a wet vac
8. Wash the floor with a flat mop and move along to the next area
9. When done with the whole floor, wash the whole floor well with a neutral cleaner
10. Allow the surface to dry for 20 min and proceed to dry buffing with a white pad
11. The job should be completed. A stain protector can be applied if required

***Marble & travertine polishing is not easy at all. Better the tools, better the results. More weight on the buffer, faster and easier to achieve the gloss. Do a sample test in a corner before proceeding with a large area. Use Diafil Diamond Polishing Pads to prepare the surface. Maintain your marble floor daily with Faber Neugel ***

Why microfiber cloths are so functional? Let’s elaborate more…….

Easily Catch Dirt

Microfiber cloths are crafted of very thin fabrics woven together. They can quickly catch even the tiniest grains of sand or dirt. To make it more functional, the cloth manufacturers split fibres into very fine strands, creating asterisk-like fibres.

Great At Absorbing Oil

Before you read on, imagine some of your polyester or nylon clothes. Will they easily ‘catch’ oil stains on their own self? I bet you said yes. Is it easy to rid of those stains? This time, your probable answer was no. With microfiber cloths, it is the same. Because they are crafted from a combination of polyamide and polyester, they'll absorb oil with the same easiness as a cloth fashioned out of comparable fabrics. Only in this situation, the oil absorption is something you are probably happier about.

Great At Absorbing Water

Microfiber cloths are the winners when it comes to water absorption. It is majorly owed to polyamide’s chemical properties, letting it generate hydrogen bonds with water. The cloths crafted out of microfibers can absorb as much as 98% of moisture.

Final Word

Where new microfiber cloths are typically gentle on the surfaces, they can collect grit (loose particles of stone or sand) with regular use. So, you must be wary of using old microfiber cloths on your high-tech devices, like LCD screens.
