Steps To Refinish Terrazzo

Step 1

Initial Cut & Clean

Remove sealers, waxes  and contamination using WerkMaster 50 or 100 Grit Terrazzo Tooling. This process is carried out dry but for heavy removal, a light water mist can be used. This stage also requires densification using WerkMaster ULTRAhard Terrazzo Densifier once the wax has been removed.

Step 2

Hone & Polish

Use our 200, 400, 800 and 1500 Grit Resin Bond Diamond Tooling to quickly and easily hone or take your terrazzo to a full polish.

Step 3

Seal and Protect Terrazzo

Low maintenance and long lasting beautiful floors that are acid and stain resistant. ULTRAguard sealers ensure a minimum 24-hour stain and etching resistance to acids, wine, coffee, vinegar, mustard and other chemicals, making them an excellent choice for grocery stores, food courts, garages, restaurants, hospitals, schools, hotels, etc.

The WerkMaster Advantage

What are the advantages of a WerkMaster over today’s planetary and direct drive machines? If your customers are tired of looking at an undulating floor that gives off uneven light reflection and is harder to maintain, you can now offer them a brilliant completely flat floor.

You can expect a minimum performance benefit of 2 to 1 over traditional equipment with WerkMaster machines – grinder, stripper, sanding, burnisher, buffer, polisher and edger. WerkMaster machines get up to 1/8″ of the wall, so you have perfectly polished floors from edge to edge.

Never Wax Again

Want to save even more money for your customer? Protect their floors with ULTRAGuard and they will never wax again. Easy to maintain, giving them lower maintenance costs, a slip factor rating of .7 on the James scale, and resistance to acid, vinegar, pop, and all other common acidic and staining products for a minimum of 24 hours without etching.

A much-respected member of the terrazzo industry stated…

“WerkMaster is revolutionizing the terrazzo industry, and I want to be part of that leading wave of technical advancement in terrazzo polishing.”

Whether it is epoxy, poly aspartic, cementitious terrazzo, WerkMaster delivers uncompromising results better and faster than any competitor’s technology.
