Question: When do you densify when polishing concrete?
Answer:
While polishing concrete, you want to densify after your 200 grit and before 400 grit typically, although we have customers that densify after 400 grit.
If the floor is ‘soft’, you may even want to add an additional densification step earlier in the process to harden the floor.
Also, if you're coloring a floor with our dye, most tend to wait to dye and densify after 400 grit.
You want to accomplish two things when densifying while polishing;
Floor is opened where the desifier is able to penetrate down into your concrete.
Allow the densifier to chemically react with the concrete to make it harder. This is why we also encourage letting the densifier sit overnight.
If you're looking for a "spray and walk away" densifier formula, check out our Concrete DNA™ Densifier CS.
Concrete DNA™ Densifier CS is a penetrating, reactive treatment for all concretes surfaces using colloidal silica. It is safe, non-flammable and non-toxic treatment that reacts with excess lime in the concrete surface. This produces a permanent, hard calcium silicate deposit in the pours making it stronger, more durable and stain resistant.
The DNA CS densifier is part of our U-Polish-It level 2 concrete polishing floor kits.
