Buffing machines?

[kev]

Hi all, can you tell me how you all buff your stone or slate floors BEFORE sealing them? or rather what do you use, ive been doing it by hand with a cloth but its about time i invested in something to make life easier, so any recomendationd would be great.

Why do you need to buff them Kev?

I just make sure they are immaculately clean and dry before sealing

just seems no matter how many times i clean them, i can still see slight streaks or swirles left by the mop...

perhaps its the mop thats causeing the streaking, i just use a damp clean sponge

Clean the floor, clean again. Buff up with a Microfibre cloth. Then seal ...job done.

Some times you will need to buff excess sealer off.... i use cotton cloths..

Me too, but never found the need to buff BEFORE sealing, except terracotta
