How to polish rocks to brilliance, the cheap and easy way!

Note that the dust from that saw is not good for your lungs, the water also keeps the blade cool so it doesn't wear out.

Thanks for the advice, I’ll try to be more careful next time!

What beautiful rocks! And certainly so simple, where would I get pads like that?

[@AdhDad420]

I purchased mine from amazon. The Amazon description for the ones I have is “SALI 12 Pack Diamond Polishing Pads 4 Inch Wet Granite Stone Polish Pad Kit with 5/8’’-11 Backer Pad for Drill, Grinder, Polisher Polishing Pad for Concrete Marble Stone Countertop Quartz 30-3000 Grit”. If you pop that into search on amazon it should take you right to it depending on what country you are in.

@@AdhDad420 Thanks! You wouldn't happen to have any ideas on what physical stores I could find them in too, would you?

[@AdhDad420]

I think most hardware stores would carry them. Up here in Canada all of the big box hardware stores charge so much for stuff I usually don’t even look lol but I would think any hardware / home building supply place would stock them. They are typically used for finishing / sanding granite countertops and I think guys use them for all sorts of masonry and even glasswork; so should be in the aisle with other abrasives.
