the sima perla machine is hard work and not only produces a bad cut but is very messy.
someone please say something nice about my new expensive purchase.

also the polish has been mentioned, and the guy i'm doing the job for has told me that if i let him know wat is needed he'll order it in.
so what do i need?

What do you mean by "the polish"?

I mentioned polishing the edges using diamond scuff pads.
Any granite fabrication shop will know what those are, small sponge pucks about 3" X 4" which have a sheet of diamond sandpaper attached on one side.
They start at about 50 grit and go to about 1200 grit.

get a real coarse 50, then 100, 200 and 400 and that should serve really well. They are about $12 - $15 per puck.

wat pads and resin shall i use?
Hi pursedog my wet cutter is the same as yours and ive been mitreing stone for at least 6 years now with the perla aswell if you look at my album youll see some mitreing ive done , to finish the mitre i have used a mastice the make of product is JOLLY vertcal gold , you also need to buy an hardener and mix the two together , most places that sell stone will sell it. If you need any more info contact me tommorrow.
