Re: Twister VS wet christalization

Wet christallization is carried out on calcareous stone floors to recive very high gloss. Terrastar ( TASKI nobile ) is christallization product in powder form, containing hexafluorsilicate and polishing agents. The polishing agents repair micro scratches and leave high gloss surface.
Twister is Diamond cleaning system - something new in my country .
Does any know which metod and result is better?



Thanx

Re: Twister VS wet christalization

i dont use crystallization and a lot of guys here will tell you that it is harmful to the stone. i have seen the effects it can have. i bid on a floor to repair it from crystallizer, the marble is spalling chunks are coming out. i have to grind the whole floor to get rid of it. also crystallizer, even when done correctly, makes the floor look like wavy plastic crap, and you get an orange peel surface after continuous use.
ive never heard of a diamond cleaning system, but it may be the same as honing. this will remove scratches and bring a nice clarity to the stone. i would say diamonds will always be easier and have better results, and its the right way to do it. diamonds cost a lot more, but in my opinion, are better in every way.

Re: Twister VS wet christalization

We use use twister pads for maintaing polished concrete and the reults are not bad. They do not last as long as advertised but do seem to last longer than when they first came out.
