Dia-Z+ Two-Zone Polishing Lap
$148.00
The DiaMatrix™ polishing surface is a toughened, hardened version of the Matrix™ polishing lap, but with a lower complexity that forces a high concentration monolayer on the surface of the lap, providing significantly sharper meets and flatter facets. It is optimized for diamond use, and in particular, for use with Voodoo Magic Faceting Polish. The Zinc+ prepolish surface is hard, flat, and slick - seldom causes orange peel the way copper can - and ideal for use with Voodoo 3k or 8k!
