Diamond Stone & Quartz Polish

HOW TO USE

Stone Polish for Caesarstone polishing.

If your stone benchtop is Caesarstone, how to polish Caesarstone is slightly different to any other quartz brand. Caesarstone gloss level can be upto 50% lower than other brands like Technistone, Silestone, Smartstone, Quantum Quartz, Quantra etc. Hence polishing the shine or polish back on caesarstone will take less time. In the Diamond Quartz Stone Polish instructional video the stone is a Caesarstone product. The shine or polish is generally between 36gu and 42gu (gloss units measured at 60^o).
