FABER® ALPHA GLOSS POLISHING CREAM IS THE GO-TO FOR MARBLE POLISHING.
If you work with marble – or own marble – you already know one thing:
Nothing looks more luxurious… and nothing shows wear faster.
Etch marks. Dull spots. Light scratches. Traffic patterns.
Marble is stunning, but it demands proper care. Especially with marble flooring.
That’s exactly why FABER® Alpha Gloss Polishing Cream has become a staple in our restoration toolkit.

Alpha Gloss Polishing Cream is a water-based polishing fluid for natural stone. Thanks to its formula, the product allows to easily and quickly polish marble, granite, travertine, limestone, terrazzo, and agglomerates. This is ideal for polishing mixed floorings, made up of multiple different materials. Alpha Gloss is often paired with Buff N Shine, where Alpha Gloss provides the first polish step and Buff N Shine the second.
WHAT IS FABER® ALPHA GLOSS?
FABER® Alpha Gloss Polishing Cream is a professional-grade polishing compound specifically formulated to restore shine and clarity to calcium-based stones like:
- Marble
- Travertine
- Limestone
- Terrazzo
It’s designed to remove light surface etching, dullness, and minor imperfections while restoring that rich, reflective finish marble is known for.
And the best part? It delivers pro-level results without requiring massive equipment setups.
WHY MARBLE LOSES ITS SHINE
Marble is calcium carbonate-based stone. That means it reacts to acids – even mild ones like:
- Lemon juice
- Vinegar
- Wine
- Household cleaners
When acid hits marble, it creates etching – tiny surface corrosion that disrupts the polish. Over time, foot traffic adds micro-abrasions that further dull the surface.
Polishing isn’t optional. It’s maintenance.
HOW FABER® ALPHA GLOSS WORKS
The cream uses micro-abrasive technology to refine and re-polish the surface layer of stone. When worked properly with a polishing pad or low-speed buffer, it:
- Re-establishes surface clarity
- Restores reflective shine
- Minimizes light scratches
- Revives traffic-worn areas
The result is a noticeably brighter, more vibrant surface that looks professionally restored.
WHERE IT SHINES (LITERALLY)
FABER® Alpha Gloss Polishing Cream is ideal for:
Residential marble floors
Bathroom vanities and shower walls
Kitchen countertops
Hotel lobbies
Commercial stone installations
Whether you’re a contractor maintaining a high-end property or a homeowner protecting your investment, this product delivers reliable, repeatable results.
PRO TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS
- Always start with a thoroughly cleaned surface
- Test in a small inconspicuous area first
- Use the appropriate polishing pad
- Work in manageable sections
- Remove residue completely after polishing
Consistency and technique matter just as much as the product.
