Marble Honing Powder for Light Scratches & Natural Stone Restoration
R0.00 – R215.63Price range: R0.00 through R215.63
Our Marble Honing Powder is a machine-buffable, non-acidic honing powder designed for restoring natural stone surfaces affected by light surface scratches, dull areas and uneven wear patterns.
The honing powder is used to create a consistent, even honed finish on suitable natural stone surfaces before further polishing or sealing. It provides a practical restoration step between surface preparation and final polishing.
Suitable for marble, travertine and limestone, the powder can be used on floors, countertops, vanities, stairs and elevator floors, as well as bull-nosing and other difficult-to-grind areas.
The honed surface can subsequently be repolished or sealed depending on the required final appearance and restoration system.

Marble honing powder is an abrasive polishing compound used with suitable machinery to refine the surface of marble and other natural stones.
Unlike a final polishing powder, honing powder is used to produce a more uniform honed surface rather than a high-gloss finish. It can help remove light surface scratches and uneven wear patterns while preparing the stone for subsequent polishing or sealing.
