These are general guidelines for most stone floors and conditions. Specific floors / conditions may require deviation from above process.
Example:
A review of the floor has determined a medium scratch issue. You
would start the restoration process at H4 - use the green pad, with
2 weights, making 2 cycles. The next step would be the red pad
with 0 weights, and 2 cycles and so on...
Cycles:
One cycle is a pass left or right then move up or down for the next
pass back with approximately 30% overlap. Multiple cycles should
be done from different directions. (see diagram for reference)
Diagram represents 2 Passes or 1 Cycle
(Left to Right; Up and Down).
