Polishing frames and lens edges in the workshop
After cutting, adjusting or repairing, frames and lens edges need a final polish. A polishing machine with the right wheel and paste brings scratched acetate and metal frames back to a clean finish and gives lens edges a neat edge, so the glasses leave the workshop looking new.
What to look for
- One speed (Lux, 2800 rpm) or two speeds (Lux 2, 1400 and 2800 rpm)
- Supplied with a right and a left conical tip and one shaft
- Drive shaft on ball bearings; starts automatically
- Optional metal or silicone cover, and wheels and pastes for each material
Frequently asked questions
Lux or Lux 2?
The Lux runs at one speed (2800 rpm). The Lux 2 has two speeds, 1400 and 2800 rpm, which gives you more control for different materials.
What do I need besides the machine?
Polishing wheels and pastes: cotton wheel no. 5 with paste no. 1 for celluloid frames, canvas wheel no. 4 with paste no. 2 for metal frames, felt wheels no. 6 and 7 with paste no. 3 for lens edges. A protective cover is optional.
