A polished finish is built step by step, and every grit stage has a job to do. The standard concrete burnishing grit stage sequence is 50 → 100 → 200 (metal or hybrid), then 400 → 800 → 1500 → 3000 (resin pads). You should not skip grit stages: each stage removes the scratch marks of the previous one.
