The RIO 4" STEP-1 GEO pad is the first (coarsest) step of the RIO three-step GEO polishing sequence. Its geometric water-displacement pattern moves water across and through the pad so it bites into the stone without hydroplaning, setting up a fast, even progression to a high gloss on engineered stone, granite and marble.
