Everything You Need to Know About the Coor & Kleever Supershine Diamond Pads System 430mm
What is the Supershine Diamond Pads System?
The Coor & Kleever Supershine Diamond Pads System 430mm is a full-spectrum polishing system designed to clean, restore, and finish natural stone floors to a mirror-like shine. Ideal for large-scale surfaces, it delivers consistent results across materials like marble, terrazzo, limestone, travertine, and polished concrete.
Each pad is engineered to complete a specific phase in the restoration process—so you get flawless, repeatable results with every job.
What makes this system different from single polishing pads?
Unlike single-use pads that attempt to do everything in one go, the Supershine system is divided into five progressive stages—each with a purpose-built pad that prepares the surface for the next step.
This structure:
- Reduces errors
- Delivers a cleaner finish
- Makes training easier for your team
- Ensures every project meets a consistent standard
Let’s break down what each pad does and why it matters.

What machine is it designed for?
This system is designed for use with 430mm rotary floor machines, a popular size for commercial and professional environments. The pads attach easily and are compatible with most standard rotary machines.

Wet or dry? Do I need chemicals?
No harsh polishing chemicals are needed.
