What progression is necessary to make this new product efficient?
Great question!
Well it is a new product, so some research is required. At this level clearly other poly diamond products should be used first. and also nanocloth strops should also be used
since nothing else is this fine and non interfering.
Grits available to precede 0.003 microns are 0.1, 0.050 , 0.025 and 0.005 microns. We know that past 0.1 we can jump to 0.025 - a 4x jump, skipping 0.050. From 0.025 the jump to 0.005 is a 5x jump. This is large, but based on many reviews this is a successful jump. Clearly going to 0.003 next would be logical but it may be possible to skip 0.005. This needs to be tested.
Note that this is done using strops, so no soaking is required, no splash and go, just go. It actually goes quite quickly. Of course at these levels care must be taken to not crosscontaminate your strops. They should be kept individually in ziploc baggies.
