  • Old floors require more work than new ones to prepare them for their new finishes. In the case of polishing, certain steps must be done to achieve an attractive and durable result. Similar to polishing, coatings require the same foundation of a properly prepared substrate. In pursuit of a perfectly polished or coated slab, here’s an example of both systems applied to a distressed slab.
    In both processes the final result by appearance is achieved after the last step. All the work that preceded this step, however, is why the floor looks the way it does.

    This is a great video and it reinforces my belief that I should NOT redo my concrete myself.

    It's too bad the average person has no idea how much work and professionalism goes into the beautiful floors they see everyday. Great video!

    This is why most homeowners can't do it themselves, you have to spend 20k on equipment & all the different diamond grits.. I'm just going to buy the cheap diamond infused scrubbing pads & rent a 17" machine from home depot for my basement laundry room. It definitely won't look as good as this but I'm not to picky & it should be pretty Shiny after a coat of sealer & 3 coats of wax

    Holy crap. The potential for mistakes on every step of this is staggering. I have a whole new respect for finished concrete floors now!

    great video but the cost is never mentioned. cost of polished vs epoxy.. i know it costs between 2-4k for most garages to epoxy with lifetime warranty but your company has not mentioned it even once.

    I am a pro when it comes to cedar decks. Concrete , well, I'll probably just wheel pressure it , maybe add a simple sealer which will need to be repeated yearly

    Glass polish on industrial floor? My Darwin senses are screaming.

    But the sand one lost the aggregate look which is what everyone wants. 💕

    Josh this was a great video. Everything needed for both systems was nice to see. Plenty of years with epoxy but never had the chance to work on the polished floors. Lot's to learn so I'll look forward to seeing more of your expertise.

    I've watched about a hundred vids on concrete floors and toppings. You sir have done the best at explaining the process. Thanks.

    Thanks for sharing this very informative video. I plan doing the whole floor of my new house with a concrete slab and wasn't sure which way to finish it. Polished concrete is now my preferred finish.

    I second Mr. Furley's accolade...! 5 min 32 sec of absolute knowledge, likely the best and most informative concrete flooring resurfacing video on YT. Anyone you know (trust) in Colorado that can do this type of quality work?

    WOWOWOW! You are not the run-of-the-mill garage floor installer. I'm going to learn a lot by subscribing to your channel. Thanks for sharing
