Yes, you've done it! Your floor looks amazing! But wait, are you not forgetting something? Although concrete polished floor are said to be highly durable and strong, it will still need to be cared for and maintained. Because face it, strength alone wont work, especially when you're abusing it.
Now the first step of maintenance that should be remembered in keeping your concrete polished floor strong is to make sure that it is sealed properly. Sealing the surface of the concrete, not only fills the gaps and cracks of the floor, it also helps prevent staining and keeps the concrete looking good for many years to come. You don't need to worry about the sealer affecting the color to be added later because it wont do any harm to it.
When you are already sure that you've got the sealing done, the next thing to do is to keep the polished floor clean all the time. Unlike most floor types, you are not required to put wax on concrete polished floor as often as the other floor styles require. However, there are floor polishes available that could help somehow in maintaining your concrete polished floor's condition. This helps in avoiding or risking slipping when wet situations.
When you keep your floor clean, you are also giving your floor that slip resistance character it should have. Contamination is actually of the major causes of slip resistance going low. Keeping the concrete polished floor dry is also one major concept to consider.
Polishing your floor will help in filling on the surfaces' roughness thus providing the grip friction necessary for its slip resistance feature. This however depends on the type of concrete polished style you have on your place. If it has that low surface roughness, lessening the layers of the polish to be applied should be followed. - 16738
