I could shine 'er up with my 20" Lortone jiggle pan if you want to send it to me. How crumbly is the matrix rock on the "bad" side? Would it have to be sealed to keep bits from popping off? I've found that 99.99999% of all squiggly scratches come from little bits coming off either the edges or a druse in the same rock that was scratched rather than from "contamination". They all do it to themselves. The bits pulverize under the slabs and never get a chance to scratch any other rocks in the pan. Let me know. C-ya, Rick

You might also ask for someone who has a wet polisher to do this for you. It would take about 20 minutes "ish" per side for a mirror finish. Of course, time isn't important to you but a wet polisher is an excellent piece of equipment to have if you want anything shiny in a short period of time.
