This is me just being curious...
Are you looking to do all the pavilions for practice, cause I don't think it's gonna do much for you with the stone you're looking to use.
The "Note to me..." - are the grit stages on a facet polish the same as wet wheel/grinder polish
No, I am not going to do any pavilion.. Just a girdle, and crown.
The note to me about pre-polishing was suggested to me elsewhere online.
The grits on the facet pads are quite a bit higher than the normal, 80 through 600/800 that I usually limit myself to. Yes, there are cabbing belts than run into the thousands, but I have never used them.
So I am not really sure what to make of the comment from him, but when I mentioned pre-polishing to the club member, he said absolutely.. That is all I really know.
