Can anyone recommend a floor polisher/buffer? I have got a few big travetine floor jobs coming up and dont want to be on my hands and knees buffing the floors by hand.

What are you going to buff off?

Just curious, why would you want to polish travertine?

Maybe he wants to buff off excessive sealer quickly before it dries., hence speeding up the job..

Mainly to get the floor really shiny after final sealing. The last big floor I did looked great but I have seen people use a floor buffer to really get them looking good.

I use a bosch polisher, it has various speed settings. You can fix a cloth over the disc or use a lambswool cover.

I use a cheap Silverline hand polisher and it works fine.

Have you tried any wash and shine products that you mop on and leave to dry without buffing after the initial seal (eg wash and shine by HG).

i have used bees wax on trav ,hired a big polisher looks great ,use the white brush not the white pads it moves the wax around better
