XXX PROFESSIONAL FACETING POLISH:
Polish like a Professional!
XXX Professional Faceting Polish is a family of polishing compounds for gem faceting that was developed for
use on composite (non-metallic) laps such as Corian, the Wizard Lap, Phenolic, Acrylic, etc.
Testing was done on Corian, but any similar material will work, as the polish creates
a thin, super-slick film between the lap surface and the gem.
I developed and tested XXX on Corian laps. And, I recommend the same laps for these polishes as I do for Voodoo Magic Faceting Polish.
XXX Professional Faceting Polish was developed by professional Gemstone Artist John Bailey
specifically for polishing facets on colored stones between hardness of 3 and 8+. It is
THE FASTEST professional polishing system that I've seen - even faster than Voodoo.
I developed it for myself, but decided to offer it to other cutters.
This polish is not for beginners. It is not as mess-free as Voodoo. It requires a separate activator/extender, but is
also not oil-based, so the facets clean easier for inspection. It is a professional-grade power tool for
very rapid and economical facet polishing.
This is the professional-power polish that has
increased my productivity by around 20% due to less time required for pre-polishing. I no longer pre-polish
any gems under 14mm if the material is under hardness of 8.
Why XXX Professional Faceting Polish is special:
-
Even faster and more aggressive than Voodoo – The 14,000 polish will work on Opal, Apatite, and Topaz-on-cleavage, but cuts almost as fast as a RED Newbond (600) lap on many stones!
-
SUPER FAST, with very high abrasive density – be careful because meets will adjust VERY quickly at lap speeds from 40 rpm to 200+.
-
Special activator/extender shifts viscosity, lubricity, and PH of the polish while it washes away swarf. This isn't as "mess-free" as Voodoo, but professional cutters will find it a good trade for the extra speed.
-
Produces very flat facets, even on softer stones.
-
Proven on stones from 3.5 to 8+ hardness.
-
About HALF THE PRICE of Voodoo per milliliter!
