Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What laps do I need for gemstone faceting?
A: A complete faceting lap set includes: 260–600 grit metal bond disc (rough shaping), 1200–3000 grit resin disc (fine grinding), diamond lapping film (14–1 micron pre-polish), and a ceramic or leather lap with diamond paste (0.5–0.1 micron final polish). -
Q: What is the best polish for faceted gemstones?
A: Diamond paste (0.5–1 micron) on a ceramic lap is the standard for hard faceting stones (quartz, topaz, sapphire). Cerium oxide on a leather lap works well for softer faceting materials. -
Q: Can I use flat lap discs for faceting?
A: Yes — flat lap discs are the standard grinding medium for faceting machines. They mount on the faceting machine platen and are used for all grinding stages before lapping film and final polish.
