Frequently Asked Questions

• Q: What is the difference between a leather lap and a ceramic lap?
  A: Leather laps are flexible and work best with cerium oxide and aluminum oxide for quartz and glass. Ceramic laps are rigid and flat, ideal for diamond paste and hard gemstones where a perfectly flat polishing surface is needed.
• Q: How do I charge a leather lap with polishing compound?
  A: Apply a small amount of compound mixed with water to the leather surface. Run the lap at low speed and work the compound into the leather with light pressure. Re-charge as needed during polishing.
• Q: Can I use multiple compounds on the same lap?
  A: No — dedicate each lap to a single compound to avoid contamination. Mixing compounds on the same lap will produce inconsistent results and can scratch stones with coarser compound residue.
