Well thanks. I used Cerium Oxide Polish. It seems to work the best for me.

Doesn't seem to be popular but I get great results with it on really hard stones. Yep, I'm a sucker for the blue lace. Great job. Can you tell us your whole recipe? cookie

Well my recipe is 4 weeks in 60 90 grit. Recharging every 7 days. Well this is were the recipe is a little different. 4 weeks in 220 220 grit because I got very busy and did not have time to change to the nexed grit. So I thought since it has gone for 4 weeks in the fine grit I would skip the 500 grit and go on to the 1000 grit aluminum oxide for one week. Then one week in CO. I seemed to work great. it mite be my best bach.

Very nice. I think you did right to skip the 500 and go straight to 1000. I really like the blue lace also. Cal(Redwoodrocks) was telling me how they mine the blue lace, but I can't remember all the details. Maybe if he sees this post he'll enlighten everyone.
