Polishing deck prisms
So I am working on deck prisms and was wondering if anyone has polished glass before and has some advice besides what im already doing. Below are pics of what the original looked like, then a version I leveled on 60 grit belt sander, and a version I worked up on an angle grinder. 100, 220, 320, 400, 600 and then cork. All obviously silicon carbide.
