Premium Stone Polishing Compound - MB-18 Ultra 5 (5X)

Ultra 5 is a fine grained Italian crafted powder that exceeds the industry standard, is easy to use and produces a superior finish. This is not your father’s 5X, but one of the best powders on the market. It polishes quickly to a deep gloss all calcite-based stones, like Marble, Travertine, Onyx, Limestone, etc. Ultra 5 will not stain grout lines.

Key Benefits of MB-18 Ultra 5

  • Highly Efficient: Ultra 5 is designed to work quickly, reducing the time and labor required for polishing.
  • Versate: Suitable for a wide range of calcite-based stones such as marble, travertine, onyx, limestone and so on.
  • Streak-Free Finish: Ensures a deep, streak-free gloss finish, enhancing the natural beauty of the stone.
  • Non-Staining: Formulated to avoid staining grout lines, maintaining the integrity of your entire surface.

Best Practices for Using MB-18 Ultra 5

  • Ensure the stone surface is clean and free from debris before applying the polishing powder.
  • For best results, maintain a consistent speed and pressure when using the polishing machine.
  • Regularly clean the polished surface with neutral cleaners like MB-1 Floor Amore or MB-15 StoneGlow to preserve the shine and protect the stone.

Coverage Information

Depending on the type of stone, expect coverage of approximately 125 – 200 sq. ft. per pound.

How to Use MB-18 Ultra 5 Stone Polishing Powder - FOR PROFESSIONAL USE ONLY

Directions for Use on Floors

  • Target an area of approximately 10 – 15 sq. ft.
  • In the middle of the target area, sprinkle approximately 1 ½ - 2 oz. (3 – 4 tablespoons) of Ultra 5 powder in a circular pattern slightly smaller than the diameter of the floor machine.
  • Using a hog’s hair pad (highly recommended), position the floor machine with a full tank of water on top of the powder.
  • For best results, use 1.5 HP minimum and do not exceed 175 RPM.
  • Release some water and swiftly swing the machine back and forth over the targeted area to evenly spread the slurry.

Note: Keep the slurry thick; not too wet.

  • Polish slowly with a spiral motion moving from one end of the targeted area to the other and back.
  • Continue polishing for 2.5 – 4 minutes, then check the surface with a squeegee.
  • You should have a high polish at this point.
  • Next release just enough fresh water onto your target area to make vacuuming the used slurry easy and vacuum to remove.
  • Clean with a neutral cleaner such as MB-1 Floor Amore or MB-15 StoneGlow.
  • Now repeat this process on next section.

Directions for Use on Countertops

  • Target an area approximately 3 – 4 sq. ft.
  • On the targeted surface, sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of the Ultra 5 powder on the surface to be polished in a circular pattern slightly smaller than the polishing pad you are using.
  • Spray some water on the powder and over the rest of the targeted area.
  • Set the speed of the right-angle grinder/polisher (variable speed is a MUST) to the slowest speed.
  • Using a hog’s hair pad, move the machine over the targeted area slowly, applying steady pressure.
  • Check the surface for results after approximately 2 - 3 minutes.
  • If you have a high polish, semi-flush the section and pull the slurry down to next section and repeat.

By leveraging the MB-18 Ultra 5 Polishing Powder, professionals can achieve exceptional results across a wide range of applications, ensuring stone surfaces are polished to perfection and maintained in optimal condition.
