Summary:A system, apparatus and method capable of grinding and polishing fabricated vertical surfaces of varying shapes and sizes without the use of hand tools. The system comprises a frame which can be affixed to the surface and which supports a grinding and polishing apparatus. The grinding and polishing apparatus uses air pressure to force a rotating grinding or polishing disc against the surface being worked on. The frame is designed so that the grinding and polishing apparatus can be moved (via, e.g., tracking) both vertically and horizontally to any desired point within the frame. The grinding and polishing apparatus optionally includes a water nozzle and vacuum system to spray and recapture water used to cool the surface being operated on.
