Pls. tell me how I may bring back the polish of my crema marfil marble tile. I bought a floor buffer and marble polish, it won't work. It worsen the surface. Pls. help me.

 

Dear Modesta:

This is an easy one.

Here's what you have to do:

 

1. You book a spot in my upcoming 3-day class on stone restoration (refinishing), which is scheduled for January 15-17, 2008 in our training facility out of Philadelphia, PA.
2. If you have what it takes, after the course you should be able to polish a Crema Marfil floor, since that marble is among the “easy” ones to work with.
3. You will need to purchase equipment, abrasive and polishing powder for approximately a total if $ 4,000.00. (It's the “starter kit” so to speak.)

 

Of course, you have a different option: you could hire a bona-fide stone restoration contracting company in your neck of the woods and let them do the job.

But you're not on clear yet:

You'd better watch out! I consider stone refinishing as the very pinnacle of all the activities related to stone from a professional point of view. Unfortunately, there are a lot of quacks on the loose out there! You get one of those, and in extreme cases you may even have to kiss your stone bye-bye!

How could you tell a champ from a chomp? Could you trust the recommendation of your local stone distributor, or contractor, or your interior decorator? Hardly!

We have available a very comprehensive article on how to select a bona fide stone restoration contractor, which will give you all the intelligence you need to make a competent choice. It does carry a small price tag, and you can order it by logging on the Educational Literature section 0f our website at: http://www.marblecleaning.org/literature.htm. It's available in pay-per-download format and I consider it a cheap “insurance premium” to pay when there are thousands of $ involved! Not to mention the little and much needed support you'd be giving to the cause – YOUR cause, since every single penny of the cost of the article will be used to support it.

Also, will you please read and sign our Statement of Purpose at: http://www.marblecleaning.org/purpose.htm? By spreading the word about this valuable site among your friend & family and the stone trades' people you've been dealing with you will be rendering everybody a valuable service!   

Moreover, do take advantage of the plethora of FREE Helpful Hints available at: http://www.marblecleaning.org/helpful-hints.htm. They're on the house!

Thank you.

Ciao and good luck,

Maurizio Bertoli
