burnished concrete
i recently had to expose and polish a shop floor in my home town, the concrete was burnished, i mean it was black!!!, the concreters thought they were doing the shop owner a favor by making it so burnt for him, but of course when it came to polishing even with a Scanmaskin 3 phase machine it struggled a bit as it was so hard, a buddy of mine had got on to this product called CFQ, it is a diamond lubricant, it helps keeping the diamond cool and sharp, i was a bit of a skeptic but once i gave it a go i was rather impressed with the stuff, once i sprayed it on the concrete and ran the grinder over it you can even feel the machine grab into the concrete and really start to cut, it was fantastic, stuff, just wondering if any one else out there has used something like this before, i got told that it is a new thing on the market here in australia below is a link of the product

in australia i have only ever come accross one job where the lady wanted it creamed polished!! no one goes for it here, we love exposed agg down here, i agree with you but cream polish just does not happen tho!!
Did the metal bond diamonds last after you applied the liquid?
the blades did really well with this stuff, it kept them from wearing down signifigently, that is what made me a fan of this stuff, it really did help keep my blades from wearing down, i guess its something you you need to see for yourself to believe, but from one guy to another it is really good stuff.
I agree with Nathan, you won't see much if any cream polishing here in Australia. When they ask for polished concrete it goes without saying they want aggregate exposure.
but if it is not a pitch. why not just do a cream polish with out using metals. easy fast money
