Lightning Lap Natural Polishing Lap

Lightning Lap Natural Polishing Lap The Natural Lightning Lap is individually crafted to have a smooth, extremely durable polishing surface and can used with any kind of oxide, or diamond polishes (1200-grit or finer). It's impervious to chemicals as well as high heat. The polishing surface is extremely hard; greater than cast iron. The unique cohesive nature of the Natural Lightning Lap allows freely-applied polishes in oil or water sprays or slurries to temporarily reside in micro pockets all along the surface and remain there to promote a fine finish. Polishing can be achieved quickly with extremely flat facets. Apply only enough hand pressure on the stone to the lap until you feel a bit of a "tug or pull" of the stone across the lap surface. Holding on to the stone instead of the quill or dop shank is also a preferred technique. This prevents stress to the dopped joint which can cause your stone to fly off the dop! Lubricants include distilled, IO, purified or charcoal-filtered wat
