Not just floor art—this time, we’re testing the tools that prep it.
We got our hands on the new Savage Patriot Pro Series Tooling from CD Surface Prep, a fresh face in the diamond tooling game. With promises of “battle-tested” performance, we put these diamonds to work on a real metallic epoxy floor job to see how they hold up under pressure.
From unboxing to grind test, we walk through the experience and share our honest thoughts on performance, durability, and cut quality.

What’s Included in the Project
- Unboxing + First Impressions – packaging, build quality, and what’s included
- Live Grind Test – used during surface prep for a metallic epoxy install
- Real-World Conditions – tested in the field, not a showroom
- Final Thoughts + Feedback – performance, speed, and wear notes
Why Resin Was the Right Choice
- Cut Like a Beast – aggressive and efficient on concrete
- Minimal Swapping Needed – long-lasting performance during the job
- Great Control – smooth feel, even at higher speeds
- Solid Value – for pros who want dependable tooling without breaking the bank
Project Highlights
- Review and demo performed on a metallic epoxy flooring project
- Tooling tested across different grit levels and flooring conditions
- Savage Patriot earns points for strength, efficiency, and ease of use
