Subject: polishing granite


Hi all...

I have the opportunity to purchase granite or marble slabs for countertops at dirt cheap prices. Since I have never worked either material my questions are.....how hard would it be for me to polish these slabs. Will I have to buy new epuipment ? Does anyone even use marble for countertops ?......
Will my arms wear out before the job is finished......can I ruin it ?
there is approx. 75 sq ft of countertop.

Maybe I should add that these slabs have been sitting, stacked for eons, outdoors, and are covered with brush and stuff......

As much as I would love to have a hand in this....would I be in over my head ?

Thanks to any who can advise me.....
