Polishing pads - name, mfgr...?
Hello,
I had seen some polishing pads, useful for buffing the edges of fused glass & so on. The oduct is like a sponge, as the diamond-embedde dpolishing pad on one side. Can anyone tell me what they are called, or who makes them? I'm trying to find out where to buy them, but it's dificult because I lack the search info I need. Thanks! - Kris |

Thanks! - Kris There are several brands, each having several grades. As far as I know they have no other name but Diamond hand pads. Some of them have the diamonds embedded in metal, others have a resin bond. The metal bonded last longer. You need a series, from coarse 120 grit to finer 2öö - 400 - 600 grit. Theu are used wet. -lauri |

3M makes wonderful products, I even have a little 3M stock. But,
these (from Harbor Freight) are excellent quality at a very good price. More comfortable shape to hold onto than the 3M pads. http://search.harborfreight.com/cpis...+pad&Submit=Go On Thu, 05 Feb 2009 10:51:02 -0600, Kris Krieger wrote: Lauri Levanto wrote in : Kris Krieger wrote: Hello, I had seen some polishing pads, useful for buffing the edges of fused glass & so on.
