Buffing and Polishing questions, answered by experts

It is possible to buff and polish your floors yourself, but DIY floor polishing is an extremely time-consuming process that isn’t particularly enjoyable. To do the work yourself, you’ll usually need to clean your floors, get on your hands and knees to apply polish manually with a cloth, and avoid puddles and oversaturation. Hiring a professional floor polisher is usually worthwhile because they have industrial equipment that buffs and polishes in a fraction of the time and usually leaves a more even coat.

Common causes include impact, heat, and improper cleaning agents. Regular maintenance prevents major issues.

Due to soapstone's non-porous nature and antimicrobial properties, you don’t need to seal it like other stone materials like marble or granite. However, even though sealing isn't required, it can enhance soapstone's natural stain resistance. Another protective option is to apply mineral oil once per month.

Standing water can lead to surface discoloration if your granite countertops are improperly sealed. However, it’s possible to remove hard water stains with a baking soda paste. Take more care with acidic liquids, such as fruit juice or red wine, which can leave more permanent stains. That’s why it’s so important to reseal these surfaces regularly.

No, you cannot use vinegar to polish marble. It is too acidic for cleaning or polishing and can etch the surface. Instead, opt for non-acidic cleaners made specifically for marble. Follow the manufacturer’s directions to ensure proper application and to protect the marble. However, a damp mop can be an effective marble cleaner when used appropriately and as long as moisture is immediately soaked up.
