You will most likely need to purchase special polishing pads that have a Velcro backing for this machine. Also start off in a small area and do a test to see if you will get the results you expect. I started off polishing a granite counter top and the diamond disk I started with was too course and the grinder I used lacked a variable speed. Once I realized the error of my ways, and purchased grinder, it took some extra polishing to get to the level of luster that I needed to achieve. If you are looking to do a large area, this can take a while and be difficult work again depending on how much grinding and polishing you need to do.

I don't believe it is. There is no mention of Hope's previous product being used for "marble" polishing; at least there is no mention of it on the specific surfaces recommended. Subsequently, the newer version of this same polish adds "Swanstone" as a recommended type surface, along with the original listing, for use of the product. My educated guess is that the Hopes premium cultured marble polish is an entirely different Hope's product. Hope this helps.

I cannot say for certain, but I would definitely lean towards "No" because marbles are relatively easily etched by acidic or basic substances. If you were going to use it I would be extremely careful not to get on the actual marble, but just on the grout. Of course, some people don't mind the weathered look of etched marble, so if that is the case, you may not mind if it etches.my best answer. Good luck!

I cannot answer about marble floors. I used on my floating Allure flooring in my kitchen and also on old hardwood floors. I was very pleased with the results. They are long lasting too. I used it in May of 2013 and it has not been necessary to use again at this time. I will use it again when scuff marks appear again.

That depends...this kit came with pad conditioner (for use when applying wax or polish) and pad cleaner for when the job is done. I have detailed my car twice and pads are still in decent condition while using conditioner during and soaking the pads in the cleaner afterwards. You will make them last a lot longer if you use those products, as they are very good. I'd say by the third run, I'll need to buy another pad (s).

By usig the proper mandrel buffing pads and wheels can be used. Soft pads will require a polishing medium. I have used my dremmel for polishing everything from brass knobs to fine jewelry. Stones I am not too sure of. All I can say there is lay your money down and give it a try.

I don't think so. they would smooth it out, but not a shiny finish. these pads are for stone,quartz/granite. If you tiles are stone like material then it's will do just fine.

If you have a mandrel for it, but I think you will have a tough time controlling the pad with a drill. I personally would buy a buffing machine.

You need a machine. I used an orbital sander and it worked like a dream. I made the marble was wet all the time with just a sponge. You might see scratches if you don't wet the marble and don't skip any pads. I actually used sandpaper (50 the 200) in place of the stadea pads, then used the stadea after that.

I would recommend changing between stages. The pads will get contaminated with the other products. I would finish my surface with the lightest pad for the best finish and no swirl marks.

You need to get some more information/research on the different pads and their purpose by grit.1500 and 3000 is what gives mirror finish,but you have to start from lower numbered grit and increase in numbers. When you reach 800 the gra nite should be smooth and has some sheen,if not,you have not spent enough time in polishing,remember to use water

The pads would absolutely work on marble. I expect you could obtain a glassy finish if the marble is good. The densifier is for concrete, and it helps to harden it and fill voids so that you can obtain that high polish without removing too much material. There are two components. Each needs to be mixed according to the enclosed instructions. Application is by knife and brush.

I think it will be fine. This is what I use to polish my furniture with. I love it.

My floors are travertine so I can't really answer. With marble it would depend on the finish that was applied to the surface. It was a miracle on my grout... The stuff is cheap order a bottle and do a test. Get a good grout brush, elbow grease is required!

Assuming they haven't changed what's in the kit since I ordered it, it should be a low-grit polishing compound meant to be used with the polishing pads.

This is fine. Use it with a Dremel & Mother's mag wheel polishing cream. You'll like the results.

Yes but remember the pads are specific to their accompanying liquid compound. This 3M system is far superior to any other combination of products I've sourced. I tried it hesitantly on a exotic CSR I own with dull paint and this HSS been s great solution. A.
