how do I start learning to polish stone slabs?
I don’t want to make facets or cabs, just polished slabs for display specimens and vibra laps are more than I want to spend for a few polished slabs,
A great place to start with this project, is to contact local granite dealers. They are extremely familiar with that art of stone polishing.
This tool is the power tool used at most facilities –
Makita 4″ Electronic Wet Stone Polisher PW5001C
you can find lots of info at www.makita.com, enter polish or PW5001C in the search and viola! you have your information.
Any questions, just let me know… I used to work in the granite and stone industry.
