How do the floors get polished? See the floor, you are standing on, can you see the reflection of the light? If yes, go about your business, if not, then read on. •
Grinding or Honing: The condition of the floor decides whether the floors need to be grinded and then honed or just honed. The light example mentioned above was to test the clarity of the floors. If there are no scratches or dirt on the floor, then the light and a nearby object will be visible very clearly. Grinding is the process in which the floor is crushed through the special polishing pads attached to the floor polishing machine. The dirty and scratched layer of the floor is grinded off and the underneath virgin layer is made to polish. If the floor is grinded, then that will too, leave some scratches, then honing is done with another polishing pad. And then the floors are polished to shine. If the floors do not require grinding and are not in such a bad state, then honing can remove the minor scratches and then the polishing step is done.
