How to use

To achieve the best results, ensure the polishing pad is securely centered on the velcro backing plate of your angle grinder. Begin the process with a coarse grit pad and progress systematically through the grit range up to the finest grade. Maintain steady pressure and consistent movement across the stone surface to ensure an even finish. If working dry, ensure adequate ventilation to manage dust; if working wet, ensure the water supply is consistent to cool the pad and clear debris.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure your angle grinder supports a 125mm diameter accessory
• Verify the required grit level for your specific stage of stone processing
• Consider purchasing a full set of grits to achieve a professional high-gloss finish
• Check that your backing plate is compatible with velcro-backed diamond pads
