Frequently Asked Questions

  • Q: What is the best rotary polishing point for getting a mirror finish on stone with a Dremel?
    A: Diamond Nova Points at 8,000–50,000 grit are the best option. Progress: 1,200–3,000 grit to remove fine scratches, 8,000–14,000 for high-gloss polish, 50,000 for true mirror finish. The resin bond matrix conforms slightly to the stone surface for more consistent polish than rigid electroplated points.
  • Q: Can Diamond Nova Points be used to polish the inside of drilled holes in stone beads?
    A: Yes — round cylinder and bullet-shaped Nova Points are ideal for polishing inside drilled holes and carved recesses in stone beads and pendants. Work through the grit sequence wet. Perfect for stone beads, pendant holes, and carved settings where flat lap pads cannot reach.
  • Q: How do Diamond Nova Points compare to diamond compound paste for stone polishing?
    A: Nova Points have diamond built into the resin — no separate compound needed. Better for carved surfaces, recesses, and 3D work. Diamond compound paste on a lap is better for flat surfaces and large areas.
  • Q: What Dremel speed setting should I use with Diamond Nova Points on stone and glass?
    A: 5,000–12,000 RPM wet for coarse–medium grits (60–600). 15,000–20,000 RPM near-dry for fine–ultra-fine (1,200–50,000). Apply light pressure and keep the point moving to avoid heat buildup.
  • Q: Can I use Diamond Nova Points to polish fused glass and art glass surfaces?
    A: Yes — flat end cylinder for flat glass surfaces, bullet points for curved areas. Work wet from 280 to 50,000 grit for a water-clear mirror finish. Resin bond produces smoother results than electroplated points at equivalent grits.
