Restoring marble and applying NeverEtch is an artisanal process that combines training, skill, attention to detail and the proper tools. Prior to beginning any project, the surfaces are evaluated to determine surface condition, appearance, and the necessary corrective measures.
Technicians use FESTOOL tools and equipment utilizing HEPA filtration to ensure a dust-free environment. NeverEtch coating has low VOC’s and is free of any strong solvents or offensive chemicals. Surrounding surfaces including flooring are protected during the entire process.
SURFACE RESTORATION & PREP.
The restoration and corrective process begins by
removing etching, staining, contaminants, and imperfections. This important step creates the
proper base for coating application.
After restoration is completed, all surfaces are cleaned and prepped for the
NeverEtch coating application.
APPLYING NEVERETCH
NeverEtch is evenly distributed and worked into the surface. After sufficient working time, the coating is allowed to flow out self-level.
CURING LAMP IN ACTION
Next, NeverEtch is cured using high intensity UV lamps. The curing process is what creates the hard surface making it impervious to etching and staining.
SANDING AND POLISHING PROCESS
Depending on the desired finish, coated surfaces are
sanded and polished to the desired appearance.
NeverEtch can be sanded to a natural honed finish and polished to a glass-like
brilliance.
After achieving the desired finish, coated surfaces are given a
final cleaning and tested for stain and etch
resistance. Surfaces are now ready for use and will not be affected by acidic
liquids, beverages, food, or other products that would normally harm the appearance of marble.
Care is simple and minimal.
