Coarse grit (50-200 grit): Used for heavy restoration or removing scratches, etches, and imperfections.

Medium grit (400-800 grit): Used for smoothing out the surface and removing the visible marks left by coarser grits.

Fine grit (1500-3000 grit): Used for the final polishing stages, giving the marble a glossy, smooth finish.

• Attach the diamond pad to the polisher.
• Before starting the polishing process, ensure that the space is dust-controlled and wear a mask for safety.
• To achieve a high gloss finish, opt for wet polishing, and for light polishing, opt for dry polishing. 
• Attach the pad to the polisher and then slowly move the tool across the surface in a circular motion.
• Remember to change the grit pad at subsequent polishing sessions for even smoothening.
• Clean the surface thoroughly and dry it off with air or dry clothes.
