[QUOTE="Lefty, post: 152337, member: 2976"] Funny you mention that Barney, a book I have here - must be 40 years old - says that diamond is a lousy polish in general and should be used only as an absolute last resort when every other polishing mediums have failed. I have polished plenty of cabs on a pad charged with #100 000 diamond and they have all taken on a pretty good polish. I thought perhaps what they were talking about must have been some effect of trying to polish a tiny flat facet versus a large smoothly rounded curve. [/QUOTE]
