: I wonder if anybody could help me with a few
: beginners questions.
: I just purchased the fine grade sanding block
: from the TZ tool shop and it works wonders
: on parts of the watch that have a sanded
: effect especially the clasp. What should I
: use for the parts of the watch that have a
: polished surface??.
: Also, when polishing a bracelet like the Omega
: SMP, how do you reccomend isolating the two
: different surfaces so as to not put a sanded
: finish on a polished surface and visa versa
: (bracelet & head parts)?. Try STICKY TAPE , It's a bit of work sticking small pieces of tape , but that's how the pro's do it.
First polish then sand it.
Polishing is done with a polishing machien... you don't have it (they're big expensive dirty and you can only use it for polishing , so for the owner of a few watches it is not recommended to buy one (unless you've got too much money...))
To get the nice shiny finish without it I don't know how to do that .
Cheers!
: Thank you very much.
