EGT Diamond System – Concrete Polishing – Dry Process

2121 https://substratetechnology.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/EGT_diamond-system_ALL.jpg

EGT Diamond System

The EGT Diamond System is a complete, matched diamond polishing system — eight coordinated metal- and resin-bond tools (numbered #1–#8) that take concrete from the first grind all the way to a high-gloss polished finish. Unlike a wet/dry system, the EGT system runs entirely dry — simpler setup, no slurry to manage. It’s built specifically for Prep/Master® floor grinders, and every tool is color-coded green so you always know you’re running a matched set. As STI puts it: it’s a system, not a machine.

How the EGT System Works

The EGT System runs as a defined 8-step, all-dry sequence, with the machine on dust collection throughout:

  • Steps #1–#3 — metal-bond tools (patented EG attachment) to grind and open the surface
  • Steps #4–#8 — resin-bond tools that refine and polish to a high gloss, with a densifier applied along the way

Running the tools in their numbered order is what delivers a consistent, repeatable finish — and because it’s fully dry, there’s no slurry to deal with.

What’s in the System

  • #1, #2 & #3 — metal-bond grinding tools (patented EG attachment); long life (#1 ~30,000 SF, #2 & #3 ~35,000 SF — even more on the 4430)
  • #4 — 3″ resin-bond tool, green Velcro, ~20,000 SF life
  • #5–#8 — 3″ resin-bond polishing tools, green Velcro, ~10,000–12,000 SF life each

(Tools #4–#8 mount with Velcro pad adapters.)

Works With Every Prep/Master Machine

Tool count per set depends on your machine:

  • Prep/Master 2807/2818LP — 6 pieces
  • Prep/Master 2420/2418LP — 12 pieces
  • Prep/Master 3030/3038LP — 12 pieces
  • Prep/Master 4430/4438LP — 24 pieces

Is Your Floor a Candidate?

Because EGT is a dry system, the surface must be completely dry and clean of coatings or adhesives (a #0 Prep Tool handles prep if needed). The concrete should be at least 4,250 PSI (29 MPa) and over 28 days old. A 100 SF mock-up is recommended before any full job. Not sure if your slab qualifies? Call us and we’ll help you check.

EGT vs. CLC — Which System?

Both are matched Prep/Master polishing systems. The EGT system is fully dry (green tools, 8 steps) — simpler setup, no slurry. The CLC system runs a dry-wet-dry sequence (red tools, 7 steps). Not sure which fits your job? Call and we’ll help you choose.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the EGT System wet or dry? Fully dry — all eight steps run dry with dust collection. (For a dry-wet-dry process, see our CLC system.)

What machines does it work with? Any Prep/Master model; tool count per set varies by machine size.

What floors is it for? Dry, bare concrete at least 4,250 PSI and 28+ days old, clean of coatings.
