Stone subsurface treatment technology

- Feb 07, 2018-

Stone subsurface is a very distinctive decorative effect. Subglossy gloss is soft. When stone is generally in pursuit of high gloss, subglossy surface can be used to highlight the effect of decoration quality if applied properly. Today, take a look at several stages of the development of the stone nursing industry in the production of sub gloss.


1, stage one: wax


The method is to lapping the stone as a whole to 300# or 500#, and then grinding the wax with stone, and the wax can infiltrate the surface of the stone after grinding, showing the effect of sub light.


This method is easy to operate and the effect is good. But the biggest problem of waxing is low hardness and poor wear-resistance; it is necessary to repeat the repeated operation to keep the temporary decoration effect. Wax is needed before each waxing. It is time-consuming and laborious, and it is easy to pollute the environment. So this method is only used early and is now discarded.


2 and second stages: smoothing or embellishment treatment


The first method is to grind the stone to 300# or 500#, so that the bottom light can reach 25 degrees, and then polish the surface of the stone after adding the light protection agent or embellishing protective agent. Finally, make a polishing on the top with crystallizer.


The brightening or polishing protective agent can infiltrate the worn stone surface and make the stone color clear and brightness increase. This method can also achieve sub gloss effect. But this method also has two problems: one is to use the protective agent, the silicone oil component can evaporate, causing different shades of color. And the color protection agent, will also cause the stone color aggravation, deepening; in addition, the use of crystal maintenance of sublight surface, still not durable. It is often washed with water, and the crystalline layer is easily dissolved in water and is destroyed.


3 and third stages: new sub light processing technology


Stone nursing technology is a continuous process of summing up experience and inadequacy and increasing technology. Learned in front of waxing and lightening, polishing process defects, we seek a breakthrough technical ideas are: - this is the premise to reduce the impact on stone, improve the wear resistance of the matte - we recommend with sealing method. The concrete steps are as follows:


Step one: in general stone, followed by the use of grinding machine, 50#, 150#, 300# disk collocation; if it is super soft stone, add a 500# disc.


Step two: each paragraph, "#" cross lapping at least 5 times, gloss up to 25 degrees Celsius, fine surface can be.


Step three: use the "crystal face + pad +VD stone seal No. 2 overall glazing treatment. Each selected 1~2 square meters, apply glair No. 2 on the ground, even throwing dry.


Step four: the whole seal can be 1~2 times, Matt is soft and uniform, superior texture.


[note] painting should not be more than 2 times, otherwise it will lose out smooth, matte effect.
