[QUOTE="Julian 'Farmer' Bonsall, post: 904124"] Well I wanted another try at the wet sponge method and also to use a makeshift water lubrication system. I was going to try the Silicone Carbide discs but I incorrectly set up my polisher which destroyed the back pad in less than a second. First is a dry cut (spanner for scale, yellow paint to help the camera focus). Second a wet cut using a water flow to the front of the blade. Third was with a wet sponge. I used a thinner sponge (not a car type, much thinner) and it worked a treat. Make sure you have the guards on properly. I also tried some Production 120 Wet and Dry paper (a low cost brand), in a flexible sponge wet block. It appeared to remove the glaze (biscuit much easier) slowly but left a nice edge - a patient process.
