I too would like to see an image of the floor. Tim, you will need to be careful on this job, people do not like to pay. This stone can give mix results.

Re: polishing basalt?

that is why a deposit is required up front to cover any costs involved and the liability. I don't think that this floor needs to be polished. just cleaned up and enhanced. client should be very happy with the results. besides they are in two bathrooms that would need to be done by hand and wouldn't even want to offer that to him. too much work for little results.
