I wouldn't recommend trying to polish the face of granite, but if you have to this can work along with some polish pads.

Yes and no. The Makita grinder will accept some diamond grinding and polishing heads; but, most diamond tools require water to keep them from 'glazing'. The Makita is a dry grinder meaning that it doesn't use water to lubricate the grinding head. A dry grinder would also make a lot of stone dust (a health hazard). The Metabo PWE 11-100 uses water to lubricate the cutting. It's also variable speed but costs $100 more. You can definitely grind and polish granite. It will take a long time and the surface won't be as flat as the original.

Not recommend for this use. If you use water it really messes with the variable speed. Makita makes a nice electric polisher.

It is my understanding that Rustoleum's countertop restoration kit can only be used on a sandable surface. However, they may have other products for marble. Worth googling. Good luck.

I would say yes ! Although granite is very robust much more diffcult to etch which is not the case with travertine. This product worked flawlessly with travertine. Granite is a much harder stone then travertine. With that being said it might require more effort when applying this product to granite. Travertine is a type of limestone and is calcium based. Granite Is more dense and tends to hold up better in high traffic areas. So all in all granite can be polished with giis product but be prepared to use a little more elbow grease ! Good luck !

I don't think so, unless you reapply frequently, which defeats the purpose of the finish. That said, I wouldn't recommend using those cleaners on a wooden countertop as it will end up in your food.

Yes it can be used on a Quartz or stone counter top, however you or the installer will need a diamond hole saw. This is a serious piece of hardware. Find the diameter of the outlet and make sure your installer has that size. Btw this hole saw bit will likely cost 2 to 3 time more than the outlet.

It definitely can, but Granite has a natural shine all alone, I would not use it on Granite. My counters are a dull finish and I wanted them to shine and look nice. That is why I use this product.

I can't imagine how you would use it for counter tops. It needs to be painted or stained. It worked great on the floor.

I can only tell you that I have a Marbleized Granite counter top so I did not have any trouble with the match. It comes out clear (opaque). It was a small chip and when I got this, I had a hard time finding the spot I fixed. I was pleased with my results.

Yes, I have used it for many years on my formica style counter tops. Works very well.

Hi Beth, I used this on my ceramic tile floors, granite kitchen counter tops "Cielo Blanco" and also on my bathroom counter tops" Bianco Antico" and they all came out wonderful. This sealer will leave a permanent protective coating which will last for a very long time. When dry this sealer will not enhance the sheen of you granite but will enhance its beauty and depth and will leave great protection against spills that if not protected would be able to soak in to the granite tending it to look dingy over time. Hope this helps!

It's polished, but you could have any counter top dealer/installer hone it if you preferred.

The short answer is yes it will. Obviously the depth of material that needs to be removed will dictate how much labor will be required. Even if you were only polishing 200 sq.ft that would prove to be moderately labor intensive. Also know that this polisher is designed to have a water source and a wet/dry vacuum connected to it. It is a very messy process. You will need to do some research to determine what grits are suggested for your application.

Well counter tops are generally highly polished and do bead water after being polished. Outside granite might have a coarse finish? If they are polished I would think they would be slippery when wet.

No. To polish rocks you need to use some kind of polishing media and water. I think it would make a bit of a mess with a vibratory polisher.

No, mine is on a simply patterned tile surface and it looks great. I think it would look fine on granite. It has patterned areas in a darker background.

Yes! I used to polish my real Japanese silver vase decorated with all kind of stones and shells! I also use to polish my silver ring with jade! Hope my information help :))
