All pads have a 1 ⁄ 4 " thick foam rubber backing so they will conform to the shape of your stone.

When using diamond compound, use a silicone lubricant, such as our Gem-Lube (see page 20).

Nova Discs are ideal for polishing backs of cabs, nodules, geode faces, and similar flats as well as for sand- ing and polishing cabs. They have a soft, rubber backing and are slightly convex (domed) so that under pressure of your stone, they provide an even polishing surface in the middle area often missed with other methods. A standard 1 ⁄ 4 "-20 thread bolt is molded into their plastic back-up plate to fit our Gem-Makers and most other machines accepting that size bolt. See below right to order an adaptor to fit your machine if it is not one of our Gem-Makers. The 4" Nova Disc is recommended for the BigFoot and Pixie, and the 5  1 ⁄ 2 " is used on the Genie, Xpert and Titan. Nova Discs must be used with water.
