To use correctly, be sure when looking at the top of the mandrel, the bristles all turn to the right, (there is a 3M printed on the back of each disc, this should be facing towards the shaft of the mandrel)
For a pre-polish to polish, work your way through the grades, beginning with the coarsest to the finest.
Unlike natural bristle brushes there is no need to add compound, so no mess, and no chemicals!

I use a Dremel. I am polishing silver card cases from 1850 to 1940. What color wheels would you recommend? Some have varying degrees of tarnish and texture. I want to restore high polish but not destroye the metal.

Hello,
What if I have a diamond ring that I am polishing, bezel set, can I use the radial bristles over diamonds?

We recommend using the EVE Radial Pumice Twist Discs as they are Excellent for removing scratches around bezel and set stones without damage to the stones.
Hi what would you recommend to polish out fine scratches from glass.

If you can feel the scratch with your finger nail, then we recommend our diamond polishing paste.
