CONT

A practical method of obtaining a high polish [of gold inlays] is to start with a heatless stone, followed successfully by a sandpaper or separating disc, rubber wheel, tripoli on felt cones and wheels, and, finally rouge on a soft chamois buff. In each step, the coarser marks left by the previous abrasive should be completely removed before going on to the next finer abrasive.
