Grind and Seal vs Polished Concrete Floors: Which is Better?

In this video, we explore the differences between grind and seal concrete floors and polished concrete floors. We'll discuss the process, durability, maintenance, and overall appearance of each flooring option to help you determine which is better suited for your specific needs. Grind and seal concrete floors are a cost-effective option that involves grinding the concrete surface and then sealing it with a protective coating. This type of flooring is known for its durability and ease of maintenance, making it a practical choice for high-traffic areas. On the other hand, polished concrete floors offer a sleek and modern look that is achieved through a multi-step polishing process. While polished concrete floors may require more upfront investment, they are long-lasting and can be customized with different levels of sheen. Whether you're looking for a budget-friendly option or a high-end aesthetic, this video will provide you with valuable insights into the pros and cons of grind and seal concrete floors versus polished concrete floors.

Very well said! 👍🏼

[@wolfofconcrete]

Thanks bro!

[@Beutifulblondie]

I love the polished concrete.

[@esdrehtsich9289]

Great explanation ! Is the look at 3:51 how the final floor will look when it is dry ?

[@wolfofconcrete]

Thank you! Yes, that’s the final look. I took that shot one week after job completion.

[@esdrehtsich9289]

Thanks. That means sealing creates a less uniform shine than polished concrete.

[@wolfofconcrete]

No worries.

[@ConcreteCardone]

What do you recommend in a restaurant setting? I’m worried about spills

[@Mrconcretecoatings]

A coating. Polished concrete doesn't do well with food spills and most restaurants don't clean their floors good enough to maintain polished concrete

[@wolfofconcrete]

Out of these two options, grind and seal. A lot of restaurants do epoxy coatings as well.

[@Paulie3Putts]

What grits did you start with and end with for sealing?

[@wolfofconcrete]

It depends what the substrate looks like and hardness of the concrete. For grind and seals we usually start with 30s and end with 70s.

[@pascals59]
