material handling traffic, along with cracks, pop outs and spalls. But in some cases, floors are essentially in good shape but have lost their initial luster through moderate wear, dirt and grime buildup. This was what we found at the facility.” After using the ShinePro System, Niagara employees were extremely pleased with the rejuvenation seen in the trial area. “Our own results serve as proof why we offer and recommend the ShinePro Diamond Systems to our customers for both floor rejuvenation and routine maintenance programs. The bottom line is that ShinePro extends the service life of concrete floors. At the same time, it provides a cleaner and brighter environment for both employees and customers.”
When it comes to renovating concrete floors, there’s a variety of rejuvenation options ranging from light cleaning to aggressive grinding and polishing. The condition of the floor is one of the variables to consider in restoration, along with the intended use of the floor and projected wear and tear. For polished concrete maintenance, light and medium concrete restoration or spot repair of concrete floors, ShinePro’s diamond impregnated pads and screens are the go-to System. The ShinePro® Diamond System is one of the most versatile and efficient solutions for light restoration and routine floor maintenance. ShinePro pads and screens deliver outstanding results on polished concrete, natural stone, terrazzo, VCT, resin floors and overlays. The environmentally friendly system requires no special chemicals, can be used with plain water or with natural pH soap for daily cleaning. Possibly one of the biggest benefits that comes from the ShinePro System is its compatibility with almost all machine models, meaning you can use equipment already in your maintenance fleet– no special burnishers or auto scrubbers required! The ShinePro Diamond Rejuvenation System was put to the test on a concrete
floor of a Niagara Machine, Inc., facility. Technicians repaired minor cracks and pop outs with a joint filler in the trial-sized area just before the loading dock, a heavy traffic site. An auto-scrubber with ShinePro diamond pads was then used to remove oil, grease and dirt stains, and the rejuvenated area of the floor was sealed. Niagara employees will perform routine maintenance to sustain the appearance and cleanliness of the restored area of the floor. Niagara Machine, Inc., is a leading industrial surface preparation specialist. The company’s extensive equipment line includes concrete grinders and polishers, shot blasters, scrapers, dust extractors, air scrubbers and HEPA vacuums, diamond tooling and abrasives, polishing pads, sealants and coatings.

ShinePro Diamond Screens are ideal for rejuvenation and aggressive cleaning of floors. Screens are available in 220, 400 and 600 diamond grits. Heavily etched floors may require lower grits, while moderately worn floors can use a 600grit diamond screen and subsequently scrubbed with ShinePro diamond pads. ShinePro diamond screens are offered in diameters ranging from 13 to 27 inches, and can be used with weighted swing machines for smaller areas, or burnishers and auto-scrubbers for larger areas. ShinePro Diamond Pads come in five grit sizes: 220, 400, 800, 1800 and BUFF. For most maintenance procedures ShinePro BUFF is the ideal choice for micro-polishing and mechanically sealing sealed and unsealed floors, and for daily auto-scrubbing. ShinePro pads can be used with high-speed burnishing machines, wet auto-scrubbers, buffers, swing machines, grinders and other floor machines.
