These pumice wheels are our 'friends' and they do what no other tool can do with such exacting precision. This essay is basically a photo-essay that photos are all that's needed.
What are the tools that 'we' need for this essay?
Pumice wheel with #240 grit (Blue colour) that removes any marks and a softer #1,000 grit (Pink colour) that polishes the metal.
Don't let the (course) #240 Pumice wheel touch any of the stones after being set.
This where I'd be using a Tapered wheel, instead of a Triangular file. This Pumice wheel "cleans and polishes" at the same time.
This fine Pumice wheel of #1,000 grit actually polishes the metal.
These Pumice wheels do what a steel file cannot do and that it gives you a fine quality of cleaning. These are what every jeweller and stone-setter need to use. Enjoy the results through these photos I just showed you.
BTW, keep the point of the pumice wheel sharp for those in between areas.
Gerry Lewy.
