Concrete Polishing

Concrete polishing is an artistic concrete cleaning method which takes concrete away from a dull flat surface to an attractive glossy, bright surface which will instantly lift the appearance of the whole room and contribute positively to its overall interior aesthetic. Polished concrete is extremely durable and very resistant to chipping, cracking, buckling, cupping and fading. The polished and textured surface is completely stain resistant, durable and resistant to scratching and gouging. It can be painted on any colour with any type of paint application system including acrylics and latex and can be used for both exterior and indoor surfaces. In addition, it can be given a rough texture for added decorative effect or a smooth finish for a more natural feel.

For best results when applying concrete polishing in Auburn, Washington, it should be left to dry overnight and then buffed off with ultra-light, clean strokes using a very fine grit polisher. If there are any blemishes to the concrete, they need to be lightly rubbed away with coarse grit sandpaper until they are almost invisible. When the finishing process has been completed, the floors should be thoroughly cleaned with a mild alkaline cleaner solution in order to remove any remaining traces of the sealer. Then, they should be resealed with a high quality polyurethane-based sealer. This sealer will allow concrete polishing to leave a protective sheen on the polished concrete floors. In most cases, this finish will last a lifetime if properly maintained and will maintain its shine even under heavy traffic, extreme heat, and the salt water, sun and many other factors.

Polished Concrete Can Add Style

There is no doubt that polished concrete can add a unique style and warmth to any space. However, it is important to remember that only a highly quality and experienced concrete polishing company can ensure that the finished shine stays for a lifetime. They should always ensure that the polisher they use contains no abrasive cleaners, harsh solvents or chemicals, as these can have a negative impact on the polished floors.
