How to Use Concrete Polishing Diamond Pads for Concrete Floor?

POSTED by CONCRETEFLOOR SUPPLY（concretefloorsupply.com）

When working with concrete flooring, we almost always find ourselves using concrete polishing diamond pads. These amazing pads are capable of working wonders on some of the dirtiest and most damaged floors. That is why we’d like to give you a quick rundown of why these diamond pads should be added to your prep work.

Diamond pads for cleaning:

Diamond pads are one of the best things you can use to clean up some of the dirtiest floors around. When you get an old concrete floor that has been used for years with very little maintenance, you’re going to have dirt and grime pretty much embedded in the flooring. On top of that, you might also be dealing with grease, chemicals, and who knows what else.

Deep clean concrete floor: The diamond pad uses the diamonds that are impregnated into it to pull away dirt and debris quickly and efficiently. You can start by using a lot of water with your diamond pad, as these pads work great when wet or dry. If you have harder stains to pull up then our Super Blue or Citra Pro products can be added to the diamond pad for a cleaning you won’t believe. After slowly running the grinder (or whatever machine you choose to use) across the floor, squeegee the excess water from the floor and use a shop vac to get rid of it. You do not want the dirty water drying on your newly cleaned concrete.

Concrete Polishing Pads for Prep Work or Polishing:

No matter what project you’re working on, you’re going to need to prep your concrete floors. When you use a diamond pad, you’re giving your floor a better chance of pulling in the product you’re using, so the finish will last longer and have a better overall finish.

When you look at concrete, you might not realize that there are lots of pores. The role of the concrete polishing diamond pads is to help scratch the surface of the concrete, thus creating divots that will allow light to bounce off the surface. These divets will take in the product that you’re applying to the floor so that it sticks longer, but also so that it creates a polished finish because it is reflecting light in a more appropriate manner instead of all over the place.

Z-LION Diamond Pads: While prepping or polishing a floor, you’re going to want to begin with a lower grit. One of the lowest grit we offer is 30. So, you will want to go over the floor with a 30 grit pad twice. Then, you move up to a 500 grit pad. You continue this process until you get up to 400 grit. This helps to make many divots in the floor, which will ensure the concrete looks incredible when you’re finished working.

How to install a diamond pad:

One of the most common ways to use a diamond pad is on a low-speed buffer. We actually have these for sale or rent, but you can find them in many hardware, home improvement, and other retail stores. This machine runs at about 175 to 300 RPMs. They also typically hold a 15″ or 17″ pad.

When you choose your pad and you’re ready to work, simply tilt the machine upward so you can expose the bottom. You will either find a head with small teeth or a brush on the bottom. All you have to do is simply place the pad onto this head and then put it back in the go position. If you do have problems, then place the pad on the floor and put the machine on top. It's really as simple as that.
