Thread: Naniwa Economical Series

I think they would stick to one another due to suction and you may just get annoyed in a very short time. In my experience, the best, most economical tools for any lapping job: loose grit SiC, Atoma 140 and 400. Mind you, I sometimes lap deep dents and chips, and raw stones.

My logic is, if you're gonna lap something with 120, then better get loose grit 80 SiC.

W&D works too, but I get annoyed when I need to do heavy lapping, cos they wear and tear quickly, especially the lower grits.

Thanks for the replies. I see the logic of using w/d sandpaper on glass instead of the 120 stone, if one is going to be lapping the 120 stone on glass anyway. And I do have access to diamond plates and SiC powders. I was just wondering about using the 120 as an in-house lapping stone. Maybe 1000 and 4000 would stick together, while the 120 would have enough texture to prevent this from happening if used to lap the 1000 and the 4000?
