In this video, Prof. John Ahr explains the various types of polishing compounds and equipment necessary to give your jewelry projects a professional looking mirror finish.
Putting a mirror finish on an item is one of the most difficult task performed by a jeweler. After careful sanding to remove all surface scratches, you will need to systematically buff the item using various polishing compounds, brushes and buffs. And, it is vital that you completely clean the item between each step. Otherwise, you will contaminate your equipment and make it impossible to ever achieve your goal. Additionally, it is imperative that you know how a metal surface will respond to various grits, textures, and materials.
