Lasco's Diamond Polishing Powders

This is faceting grade, resin bond, diamond powder. Use the coarser grits (100, 400, & 600 grits) for shaping. Use the intermediate grits (1200, 3000, & 8000 grits) for pre-polishing. Use the finest grits (14000, 50000, & 100000 grits) for final polishing.

For effective use this powder should be mixed into a polishing paste with some type of a carrier. The more popular products are mineral oil or vegetable oil if you like your paste thin, petroleum jelly or vegetable shortening if you like your paste a little thicker, or you can use bees wax if you prefer your paste very heavy. Mix the contents of the 5 carat vial to somewhere between 1 teaspoon and 1 table spoon of carrier. If you use a teaspoon your paste will be more aggressive. If you use a tablespoon your paste will last longer.

Diamond is sold by weight. 5 Carats = 1 Gram. This amount will be approximately 1/2 a thimble full by volume.
