About Diamond Polishing Compound, 5 Piece Lapping Paste
Overall Feedback:
90% positive
89% liked its abrasion-resistant properties
I have found this diamond compound to be a game changer. Now, I am able to polish my stones to a glossy finish.
88% praised for its compatibility with a range of materials, while 12% experienced issues with metal.
I have been struggling to find the right material to polish my soapstone pieces to a high sheen. I have tried paste waxes, high-grit buffing pads, and compound sticks with mixed results. But, this diamond compound has been a game changer and I am finally able to polish my stones to a glossy finish.
I tested out the higher grit pastes starting with 12,000 grit and then moved on to 40,000 grit to maintain the brushed metal look.
I am dissatisfied with the product and will keep searching for better compounds. I doubt its compatibility with glass as it is just below the scale of hardness.
I had to return the product as it did not match the description.
98% liked the ease of application
I recommend the polishing compound for similar projects.
I suggest using a toothbrush to get into all the little ridges of the ring or necklace while using the product.
I find the diamond paste easy to use for carving and polishing rocks. However, the rocks become too slick to hold onto after polishing.
93% praised for its exceptional grinding performance, while 7% found it slow.
After polishing the rocks, I can barely hold onto them because they get so slick.
I started with the 12,000 grit to be safe and was amazed at how quickly it cleaned my ring.
I found that using both 12,000 grit and 40,000 grit pastes together creates the desired mirror finish.
I had to return the product as it did not perform as described.
83% appreciated the minimal residue level

I found that using both the 12,000 grit and 40,000 grit pastes together created the desired mirror finish.
I find the diamond paste fabulous as it provides a good surface finish.
I am dissatisfied with the product and will keep searching for better compounds. I doubt the authenticity of the product's claim of being diamond and think it might be zirconia instead.
