If they are ceramic Why use Twisters?   They will do nothing other than possibly ruin the Glaze and maybe wreck the floor!

January is the next course!  E mail all your details to tilinglogistics@hotmail.com you will then be e mailed first

Or just remove the diamond coating on the lips and truth em into normal floor pads which could have been used in the first instance.

I will put the job on hold.

Do you mind phone calls tomorrow, and also maybe send you pictures of floor, so you can give me advice!

This is a good client so dont want to muck this up!

A bit hard to tell from that photo but best guess is it looks like a honed limestone with either black Marble or Limestone lozenge inserts.  How do they want the floor to look?  Apart from the obvious (A lot cleaner)!  Do they want a honed, semi sheen or polished finish?  How many M2 is it?  Where is the job?  I thought you were based near me?

Good Morning Kev,

They have really just asked for it to be clean, and then sealed. I did a small test area and it came up well, but once it had dried I saw that the surface was damaged with light scratching, hence the thought of using twister pads.

Its about 50m2. I am down near Oxford, so only about an hour away from you.
