Greater than one weekIm using the 50 and 100 grit pads for polishing the concrete floor in my basement. Im using them with a Makita 9564CV angle grinder and a dust shroud. This grinder has a variable speed setting so I can keep the RPM at or below 5,000. The finish with this grit is actually amazing, it looks so much nicer than we originally expected. The seller even threw in two additional pads for free as a bonus, which was really cool. Very positive experience thus far!

> 3 dayYou need to write down which are the finest grit to the course ones. The numbers wear off and each of these type of products have different color codes. No paperwork to help with this either.

> 3 dayI installed my own granite tile countertop and used these pads to polish the cut edges. Worked great. Make sure you use water when you get to the finer pads when polishing granite. I used these with a 4.5 angle grinder, connected to a speed control to keep the RPMs down.

> 3 dayBeen procrastinating this purchase for a few years now, but I’m totally glad I finally did. I’m not a stone worker just like DIY project and keeping stuff nice around the house. So far I used these on a marble countertop to take out some surface imperfections and stains. Started with the 800 grit and finished with the 6000. The marble of course needed a marble polish compound, but these pads allowed for a complete clean slate to polish the marble. The granite in the kitchen in next on the list to bring back to new condition.

> 3 dayThis pad set works very well. I cant comment too much on their durability, since I have only used them for a few pieces of granite so far. However, the directions say to use an adjustable speed grinder, and only polish using a slow speed. That is important; the polishing discs are velcroed on to the wheel, and at at 11,000rpm, the discs will come flying off. They work just fine at lower speeds though. I probably would not recommend this for a professional stone installer, but for a handyman/DIYer, they are just fine.

> 3 dayThese worked great to edge polish Quartz countertop I salvaged. Unable to match the factory top polish on a new seam. Not bad for DIY.

> 3 dayThese pads were great! I had to polish several edges of 3cm granite for some bathroom vanity tops and they worked great. I assumed this kit was ready to mount on a drill but I soon realized it the foam pad doesnt have a mandrel. You need either a grinder/polisher or be sure to purchase the drill adapted when you buy the kit. I bought an angle grinder and a router speed controller (to slow the grinder down) for this project. Here are some tips I learned: 1. Make sure the pads are centered! Off-center pads cause uncomfortable tool vibration. 2. Take you time & be thorough. I realized after I installed the piece that I had missed a thin strip. Tough to see outside, but you can see the dull reflection under lighting. 3. Tape off work section. This helped me stay within the limits of the work area and ensure I was polishing the entire work area so I didnt miss anything. 4. Take a milk jug and poke a pin hole about 1 inch from the bottom. Fill with water. Direct the small stream of water onto the work area. Move jug as needed to keep area wet. Overall I was very happy and the pads still look brand new. Based on how often I will use them, they will probably last my lifetime. Most of my friends couldnt tell the factory edging from my work so I was happy about that!
