MARBLE POLISHING MADE SO EASY,
A MONKEY COULD DO IT!
Finally there’s an effective solution to marble polishing that you can start using immediately to hone and polish most any Marble, Travertine, Limestone or Terrazzo floors, walls, or counter tops.
Never Polished Marble???
Now You Can Polish Like A Pro!
For hundreds of years marble polishing has been an extremely specialized field. Because of the complex nature of natural stone there have been hundreds of polishing methods and compounds used to transform a dull rock into a beautiful highly polished surface. Until now, only a skilled craftsman could even begin to understand which methods and compounds should be used to polish and maintain different marbles.

These pads are meant to be used to remove wear and achieve a wide variety of finishes from dull hone (no shine) to a high polish on Marble, Travertine or Limestone floors, walls or counter tops with little to no lippage (uneven tiles).
Follow these simple steps to achieve great results with less mess in less time without the use of harsh chemicals.
FOR USE WITH FLOOR MACHINES: 17” - 20” (175-350 rpm)
1. Sweep or vacuum to remove all abrasive soils.
2. Clean surface with “Stone Cleaner”.
3. Rinse surface thoroughly.
4. Center “Monkey Pad” on drive plate on floor machine.
5. 175 rpm machines work best with 30 lb drive plate. 300-350 rpm machines do not require extra weight.
6. Apply enough water to 2’ X 5’ area to lightly wet the
surface. No need for huge puddles.
7. Move the floor machine in an oval pattern, counter clockwise to keep the water inside the work area.
8. Check surface after 15-30 seconds to see if desired
results are achieved.
9. If YES, repeat steps 6-8 on the rest of the room one section at a time.
10. Overlap sections by 4” - 6” to keep an even finish.
11. If NO, repeat steps 7 & 8 until desired result with that grit is achieved (usually 15-45 seconds per 2’ X 5’ area).
12. Rinse whole area between grits.
13. Rinse pad thoroughly after each use and allow to dry.
14. Repeat steps 6-10 with grits as you go to higher number until desired finish is achieved.
FOR USE WITH HAND POLISHER: 7” Variable Speed (600-3000 rpm)
1. Sweep or vacuum to remove all abrasive soils.
2. Clean surface with “Stone Cleaner”.
3. Rinse surface thoroughly.
4. Center “Monkey Pad” on drive plate on hand polisher.
5. Apply enough water to 2’ X 3’ area to lightly wet the surface. No need for huge puddles.
6. At lowest speed setting, move the tool in an oval
pattern, counter clockwise to keep the water inside the work area.
7. Check surface after 15-30 seconds to see if desired results are achieved.
8. If YES, repeat steps 6-8 on the rest of the room one section at a time.
9. Overlap sections by 4” - 6” to keep an even finish.
10. If NO, repeat steps 7 & 8 until desired result with that grit is achieved (usually 15-45 seconds per 2’ X 5’ area).
11. Rinse whole area between grits.
12. Rinse pad thoroughly after each use and allow to dry.
13. Repeat steps 6-10 with grits as you go to higher number until desired finish is achieved.
TIPS
1. Use more water with lower grits and less water with higher grits.
2. To verify if you are finished with any grit level, follow these steps: Use pad in one spot for 20-30 seconds and squeegee water back, if it looks better than the rest of the area, keep working it.
3. Use more weight or pressure and less water on grits 3,000 and above.
4. Overuse of the lower grit pads (200, 400, & 800) can cause orange peel effect. To avoid this use more water, faster movement of the machine, and spend less time.
5. Softer stones like Limestone and Travertine may not need to have the full range of grits used. In most cases you can use the 3000 grit pad, then rinse, use the 11000 grit pads and be done.
6. Too much weight on the machine can also cause orange peel effect. A lighter weight, higher speed machine is recommended over a heavy weight, slower machine. High RPMs, Low weight.
7. Pad maintenance is very important. The pads may become contaminated if left diamond side down on a soild surface. It is vital to clean/rinse, dry, and store the pads properly after each use. Make sure you store the pads face-to-back. The colored side of the pads should always face the same direction.
8. When using the pads, NEVER use any chemicals, rinsing agents, or polishing agents. This will contaminate the pads and cause them to function incorrectly. Use water only!
Testimonials:
“I used these new monkey pads on a travertine honing job and had great results! They are easy to use and easy to clean. I am new to this type of service and am not scared to use them. I believe they are easier than using diamonds and less risky.”

Stonecreek Enterprises LLC. is a natural stone installation and restoration firm here in Utah. We are responsible for the maintenance and restoration of very high-end properties. Like other restoration companies for years we have struggled with the harsh chemistry of crystallization and the absolute mess of abrasive powders for honing and polishing stone. After seeing Dana and Don demo these pads to say the least I was extremely interested. I've sense personally not only tested but used these pads on a wide variety of Limestone, Marble and Travertine. We are now in the process of switching all of our honing and polishing to these pads. Truly one of the most innovative and practical products introduced to the natural stone restoration industry in years. In closing, I must agree with you Dana, you probably could teach a monkey to use these pads! Looking forward to trying your new pads for granite.

"We couldn't be more pleased with the results obtained from the Spinergy Stone Polishing Pads! Having first, and unnecessarily, sanded down the white marble floors to pure stone to remove deep scratches and stains), we were concerned that we would not be able restore the shine/sheen to the floors. We went to every local Home Improvement, DIY, and floor store, we were unable to find polishing pads. Apparently, those stores make more money off of new floors than restoring damaged ones. When we discovered Spinergy's pads here, we ordered them, and when they arrived, we weren't certain they would do the job, but they did, and they worked EXACTLY AS ADVERTISED!! With just a little water sprayed from a spray bottle, and a little patience, 1 to 2 minutes at a time with each of the pads in sequential order, our floors are EVEN BETTER than they were when new! Thank you Spinergy!!"
