>>I wanted to try to fabricate a granite countertop myself to learn how to

>>the final polish on. I started wet polishing with the 50 wheel on slow
>>speed and progressed to 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3000 and Buf. The
>>granite is smooth to the touch and when it is wet it looks great and has
>>the look I am trying to achieve. But when the water dries off it looks a
>>little bit duller and "whiter" than the mill finish.

>> Just to test, I picked a small 4"x4" area and took plenty of time with
>> each grit not pressing too hard or using too much water, but it just
>> won't polish up. I spent all day working this stone. So, I have 2
>> questions :
>>
>> 1 - Is there some product that can take the stone from the polished but
>> dull state it is in and give it a 'wet' look ?
>> 2 - When wet polishing, since the stone looks 'polished' how do the pros
>> know that all areas have been sanded and it is time to move on to the
>> next grit?

>> Thank you,
