So Slip Resistance of Polished Concrete is an important issue.

As discussed by email, hardener is fine. Penetrating sealer is OK as long as none is left on the surface. Whether 100 grit or something coarser is required should be determined by test. It’s critical to polish only a small area — like one square meter — and test it with realistic contamination to assess whether the slip resistance is adequate. Don’t finish the whole area until you have success on the small test patch!

What finish would you recomend for areas that are always wet. They will use the area for cleaning chicken.
Can we use polished concrete till grit 100 only and then use a hardener and sealer?
