FEATURES OF CHROME OXIDE POLISHING LAP:

• Chromium oxide is a green-colored, hard lapidary polishing agent, that is the most effective for polishing gemstones.
• Chromium Oxide is an ideal choice for polishing softer gemstones that have hardness from 5-7.5 on Moh’s scale.
• The polishing lap comes infused with the chromium oxide polishing powder and diamond compound (premium model), hence there is no requirement of charging the lap with any other polishing compound before usage. 
• Chromium oxide lapidary polishing lap ensures scratch-free polish that provides a mirror-like surface to the gemstones.
• For an Emerald cutter, this lap is the perfect answer for wholesome, easy, fast, clean, and satisfactory polishing of Emeralds.
• It also has the ability to function on a wide variety of gemstones such as polishing Emerald, Aquamarine, Beryl, Tourmaline, Tanzanite, and other similar stones. 
• The chromium oxide lap baseplate is machined with strong aluminum, which gives it a sturdy construction and the ability to last long.
• This polishing lap only requires drips of water on the surface while functioning, which works as a coolant so that overheating of the lap is avoided.
• The lapidary polishing lap has been manufactured with the utmost precision to provide a perfectly flat and parallel to the surface lap. This ensures great balance and accuracy for smooth, superior quality lapping of a gemstone.
• The lap needs to be dressed from time to time in order to maintain the plane and smooth surface for lapidary polishing. The best results will be achieved using a dressing stick that delivers perfect results.

USER GUIDE/THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND:

• Best results from these lapidary polishing laps for faceting are obtained when you put the least pressure while polishing valuable gemstones such as Emerald, Quartz, Jade, Garnet, etc. It should be such that constant contact is maintained. High pressure could lead to scratches and chipping away of the top polished layer.
• The surface of the polishing lap should be constantly lubricated with water to keep the surface moist, as heat is absorbed in the process. Hence, the lap will work efficiently for a longer time.
• You need to be aware of the type of compound of the polishing and faceting lap that will be ideal for your choice of gemstone. It varies according to the hardness and type of stone. Chromium oxide is utilised best for polishing gemstones such as Emerald, Quartz, Garnet, Jade, Beryl, Tourmaline, Peridot, Feldspar, and other similar stones.

• It is imperative to always keep the gemstone and polishing lap clean to achieve a superior quality of shine and polish of the gemstone.
• The room chosen for lapping should also be free of any dust to avoid even the minutest of scratches and dirt from the gemstone.
• We suggest that the lap speed should be moderate, i.e. around 1500 RPM as high speed leads to more stock removal of the gemstone being polished.
• The dressing of the lap should be done carefully to achieve a true plane surface as it determines the quality of the polished stone.
