I'm a Hoosier and think Hindostan's are cool to look at .........but the 4 or 5 I have running around the place seem to want to throw transients into the mix. Will polish nicely for a bit with extremely light pressure and then SCRATCH. Hindo's aren't usually that hard to lap that I've seen so far. I saw on another forum recently that a gentleman has one that will finish. Maybe they vary quite a bit in hardness. I think it may be some thing else? Here's mine for reference.
