Description
The DIAZ+ is a dual zone lap with an outer band of ZINC PLUS for prepolishing with 3 or 8K diamond.
The Inner polishing band is DIAMAX™ and may be used with oxides or diamond.
The benefits of dual zone laps are:
1: No adjustments are needed from prepolish to polishing. The stone is being prepolished and polished on the same plane, so the stone is being polished in perfect register with the prepolished facets. No time is wasted in trying to remove material from the leading or trailing edges or heel or toe of the stone from one surface to the other.
2: “But contamination”. Wipe the stone and dop clean when switching to polish. The fluid film always flows outward form the polishing zone and does not harm the coarser prepolish zone.
3: There are many old machines out in use that are not as tight as they once were. Some are sixty years old. These do not repeat settings very well. A dual zone lap is the only way of eliminating these issues.
