No rubbing down needed Paul, I used an old turbo blade from ats, I find it great for stone. Some times I will use a vacuum brazed blade if required

Thanks. Just I tried the Turbo blade on Italian Carrara and Chinese Black Veined marble and both chipped (chinese worse than the italian). Had to undercut by 1-2 mm and polish it down. However have ended up using the Rubi ECD for both cutting and shaping with near perfect cuts every time.

Must have either been my technique or the quality of marble used that made the difference.

But to get back on track, from what I have tested for my personal needs of polishing edges and bull-noses, Sait Pads are top of my list and they last surprisingly well.

For me Paul I used an old turbo blade which had done many weeks of porcelain use. Straight out of the box the vacuum brazed blade is brilliant
