Dear Forum
I need a product and process for polishing small areas of Tenax filler in a Traventine floor.
The areas of filler has been colourmatched and buffed using 800 - 1200 grade paper but now needs
polishing to match surrounding tile. I have tried applying Lithofin care - sheen but this will
not produce a gloss finish. Any suggestions please.
 
I've used jolly glue, when I used it I masked off the area surrounding where the filler was going.
I didn't need to buff it up as it was fine.
Not sure what will work but will be good to know.
 
Which room is this floor in.?
do you have an impregnator in first? Care sheen will sink in if not. Also this product will build with time/
if not a bathroom , I use our cobble wax, over impreg.
do you want to bring shine to rest of tile?
 
Thanks for helpful reply. Location is Hallway and no I did'nt use an impregnator but sounds as if a wax would be best
 
Just for clarification, please. Lithofin supply two products; Cobble wax and Polish Cream. Both seem suitable for reinstating a polished surface. Does anyone have experience of which product is best, please. Thanks
 
cream polish is for vanity/worktops, cobble wax is for fine honed/honed floors, this would be best, test for suitability and you like finish. ideally you will have a suitable impregnator in first , we have MN stain stop
