Hi Maurizio I read your answers all the time and always like what you write.Recently I removed lippage from a granite floor and I ended up with an orange peel kind of finish after I polished. I did grind up to 8500 wet grind. Some mineral got loose and there is tiny pits. I don't mind to grind again if I have to, but if you can suggest anything that you might sell or I should get to maybe fix my problem. Any help from you is greatly appreciated. Thanks Mike ( Don't know the name of the granite, but it is on the greens with some brown with light grey vein in it.)

Unfortunately, we common mortals have no possibility to use the same technology (which would imply the same type of machinery) down here on our little blue planet, and hence… L
