MB Stone MB-20 Granite Polish for Professional Use Only, Granite Countertop

MB20 is the best product for polishing granite countertops. My house was eight years old when I bought it and the previous owner did absolutely no maintenance to the granite countertops in my kitchen. No sealer or anything was done to protect the stone. There was little to no shine and the sink area was the worst. This product has restored my finish to a factory shine. I did two separate applications with both the hogs hair pad and the Super Gloss Pad. You definitely will need a variable speed buffer/grinder to get factory results. This process is very easy but take your time and pay attention to your rpm speed and the MB20 as you work it in the stone. I started working the product in at the lowest rpm (300) and gradually increased to a max of 600 rpm. Corners will need to be done by a hand buffer. This product goes a long way and the eight once container should be more than enough for most kitchens. I have a large kitchen and I have plenty of product leftover. Use about a teaspoon per 2'x2' area. My application was done twice on two separate days. I'm blown away at the results. I really thought I was going to have to hire a professional to restore the finish until I researched this product and process. Well worth it he investment of the variable speed buffer. Research this process on YouTube, there are several good videos that show the process using MB20

Used with my polisher according to company directions and video, and followed suggestions in other YouTubes, as well. Takes a little practice and a small amount of work — very similar to polishing automotive paint — but results made it all worthwhile

If you're expecting a gallon jug [ha!], don't let the small size fool you. A little goes a long way, and this product worked great on polishing my basalt kitchen sink. It's a big sink and harder than granite; yet, the polish worked well -- and I still have plenty left over. The plastic, sir-tight and reusable insert cap ensures any unused polish stays in good condition for storage once the cap is screwed back on over it. So, I'll be able to use more of the polish at a future date, if and when needed. Good quality; it does not damage the surface the way lesser, mixed-grit products might. It was packed and shipped well and received in good condition.

Wow this stuff is amazing. I always thought my countertops looked a little dull, even right after being installed. One spot looked particularly bad after having a chip repaired and it appeared they damaged the surface polish around it. After being jerked around by a couple granite places I decided to take matters into my own hands, watched multiple tutorials on polishing granite, ordered some of this MB 20, a hogs hair pad, and picked up a cheap variable speed polisher from Harbor Frieight. I must admit, I was nervous about using a power tool on my countertops so I tried polishing them by hand first with the MB 20, but got zero results. It took me a little bit to get the hang of things with the polisher, I kept backing off too soon and not seeing any results, but the key is don't be afraid to run this stuff dry. It will start out wet, but then dries up and that's when the magic happens. I pretty much stayed on the lowest setting of the polisher which was 600 RPM's. I also went over it a second time with the same hogs hair pad and a few squirts of water to get rid of some residual haziness from the MB 20. I honestly never imagined my countertops could look so good! They are way more shiny than when they were first installed and that one bad spot from the chip repair is gone now (after hand polishing methods and no other products worked). I am so pleased, and actually in love with my granite now!

I used this product with a power DA polisher along with the recommended buffing disk. I watched numerous videos on how to polishing granite counter tops. I am a handy person and figured this should not be too difficult. I then forged on expecting a great results. Instead after 20 minutes working a 3ft x 3ft area the results were very disappointing. In fact the finish was slightly duller in my opinion. Out of desperation I turned to a product I use for auto finishes. This is a auto compound by a company with one number and one letter making up it's name. The results were great and far better than MB-20. The haze was removed leaving a deep shine.

This is a must have for the stone business. But if you aren’t a professional you probably won’t get this to work. Must have the right tooling. You can see I got the original shine back on the seam

My bathroom granite vanity was damaged a few years ago with many surface scratches. We had someone try to restore it and although the scratches were gone the polish they use quickly went away and we were left with a slab with half the shine gone and hazy. I thought I was going to have to either buy a new slab or pay someone else to try to restore the granite until I saw a few videos on granite restoration. Many vids used multiple diamond pads of varying grit and I wasn’t comfortable with the process. Then found a video using MB-20 with great results. I first tried applying the MB-20 using a 5” felt pad with my dewalt drill and had poor results due to not getting a high enough speed/rpm and too much wobble between the pad and granite. I broke down and bought a Makita 92/7C 7” variable speed polisher and hogs hair pad with stunning results. You definitely need those higher speeds to bring out the shine....I even was up to the 5 and 6 setting at the end to really heat up the polishing compound. I noticed some swirls in the granite after this high speed but was easily able to remove them by adding a small spritz of water and bringing the speed back to a setting of 3, gently going over the swirled area a minute or two. Absolutely thrilled with the results and will use again!

Firstly from the outset let me state I was using on man made stone. I have polished my island bench twice with this compound using an orbital polisher . Some areas I’ve polished 3 times. Outcome is patchy at best. Could be my stone but just don’t know.

Works great. Way better than other products tried to clean up mineral deposit on a granite benchtop
