POLISHSURF 4-inch Diamond Tile Polishing Pads, 15‑Piece Kit — 5/8"-11 Backer, Wet/Dry Grits 30–3000

This complete polishing set gives contractors and hobbyists a single, organized solution for shaping, smoothing and shining natural and engineered stone. The kit includes a rubber 5/8"-11 hook-and-loop backer and fourteen diamond pads spanning coarse repair grits to ultra-fine finishing grits, designed to be used wet or dry where appropriate. Follow the recommended RPM ranges and sequence to protect surfaces and get consistent results.

How do these pads remove scratches and restore dull stone?

The pads work in a stepwise progression: coarse diamond grits cut away surface damage and level uneven areas, while finer grits refine the profile and build a reflective polish. Use the lower grits for aggressive material removal and higher grits with water for lapping and shine. Consistent passes and even pressure produce a uniform finish without swirl marks.

• Includes grits: 30, 50, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1500, 3000 (multiples where indicated)
• Start with grit #30 for deep scratches; progress sequentially to #3000 for mirror finish
• Wet higher grits (400–3000) to reduce heat and improve gloss

What equipment settings and safety tips should I use with the grinder?

Mount the included rubber backer to any grinder with a 5/8"-11 arbor and attach pads via hook-and-loop. Keep RPMs within the recommended ranges: 1500–2500 for coarse grits and 3000–3500 when polishing with water. Never exceed 5000 RPM and always wear eye, ear and respiratory protection when dry sanding.

• Use 1500–2500 RPM for 30–200 grits (dry or wet)
• Use 3000–3500 RPM for 400–3000 grits with water
• Do not exceed 5000 RPM; use PPE and proper coolant when wet

Which stone types are compatible and when to use wet vs. dry?

The kit is formulated for a wide range of hard and soft surfaces including granite, marble, quartz, concrete, travertine and terrazzo. Coarse grits (30–200) are suitable for heavy material removal and can be used dry for initial shaping; finer grits (400–3000) should be used with water to minimize heat and to produce a high-gloss finish.

• Granite and quartz: use full sequence, favor wet for finishing
• Marble and travertine: proceed gently, prefer wet polishing to protect stone
• Concrete and terrazzo: coarse-to-fine sequence for leveling and sheen

Who is this for? This POLISHSURF set is aimed at tile installers, stone fabricators, renovators and serious DIYers who need an all-in-one polishing sequence for multiple stone types. It suits projects from repair and edge work to full-surface refinishing on countertops, floors and steps. If you value a durable diamond bond, a full grit progression and simple hook-and-loop attachment, this kit offers an economical way to achieve consistent, professional-looking polish when used with proper technique and safety precautions.
