STONE SERVICES
All procedures at
Lux Natural Stone Care require technicians to be skilled and experienced.
Restoration
Restoration of stone is the restoring of worn stone– marble, travertine, granite, etc. It may also entail the altering of the stone's surface to match a desired finish
If your stone surface is worn, scratched, chipped, stained or etched, technicians at Lux Natural Stone Care can restore it's appearance.
Polishing
Polishing is a lapidary process whereby rough stone is polished and smoothed using machines to produce shine to stones. Stone surfaces dull with wear after time. If you want a shiny surface, polishing your stone can improve it’s beautiful appearance. We improve your stones clarity to keep it looking brand new.
Diamond sanding
Diamond sanding can be continued to a very fine grade until a polished finish is achieved. These final grades reduce scratches which are not even visible to the human eye allowing the natural crystals on the surface to reflect light more effectively. This is an extremely skilled task which requires patience and experience. If individual scratches are not removed effectively in the early stages then the finer grades will only serve to magnify them. Our diamond pads are used only on natural stone, they have diamonds embedded in them to act as a fine abrasive.
Honing
To create a honed surface means to leave it smooth and flat with a matte finish. This is achieved in a number of different ways. A stone which is being diamond grind will eventually show a honed finish as the medium resin grades of diamond are used. At this stage a honing process will enhance the smoothness of the surface. The honing process will remove ring marks on a table or counter left behind by a glass or mug. Some limestone will not polish and so grinding it with very fine diamonds will produce an ultra honed surface.
It's worth knowing that the concept of honing stone has been around for generations and any process of using an abrasive to smooth stone can be described as honing.
Sealing
Repairing and sealing your surfaces is worth every investment. Using sealing techniques we can help your surfaces will look new again. If you want to protect interior or exterior stones, we offer a few sealers to protect your stone.
