Precise Edge Profiles
Bullnose, ogee and bevel profiles must be consistent and clean - poor wheels leave steps and shading.
Seamless Polishing
Uneven grit steps and heat marks ruin the gloss; clients expect a flawless, uniform finish.
Sink & Faucet Cutouts
Rough or cracked cutouts around sinks and taps look unprofessional and slow installation.

Technical Tips for Countertop Fabricators
Run Profile in Sequence
Start with the roughest profile wheel, then step to finer wheels before polishing - skipping steps leaves shading.
Wet Polish Quartz
Quartz generates heat fast; wet polishing prevents burnout and keeps the edge from yellowing.
Control Router Speed
Too fast burns the profile; too slow chatters. Match RPM to wheel diameter for a clean, even edge.
Support Cutouts
Clamp and back up sink and faucet cutouts to avoid blowout on the underside of the slab.
