For a deformation- and relief-free polishing result, choosing the right polishing cloth is crucial. The cloth material and texture (silk, artificial silk, synthetic fibers, wool fabric, felt, flocked or foamed synthetic fabrics) and the resulting impact elasticity play a decisive role in the selection of the suiting polishing cloth. The fastening systems (GALAXY metal disc with magnetic foil or GALAXY X-Tap) also differ, and can influence the polishing result. The GALAXY polishing cloths, optimized with the QPREP anti-slip backing, withstand high shear forces even under high contact pressures and fully loaded sample holders, ensuring a stable polishing process at all times.
在开始时，预抛光阶段，选择具有低回弹性(硬布材料)的抛光布，因为这可以保持边缘的锐度。与进一步的抛光步骤相比，由于抛光时间较长，在预抛光期间可以实现更高的材料去除。
采用不同回弹性的抛光布进行中间抛光。抛光的目的和要抛光的材料总是选择合适的抛光布的决定因素。
最终抛光是在具有高弹性的抛光布上进行的，抛光时间短，以避免形成浮凸。最终抛光可以使用金刚石悬浮液(3 μm - 0.5 μm)进行，也可以使用精细抛光悬浮液(氧化物抛光0.1 μm - 0.05 μm)或(氧化铝1 μm - 0.3 μm)进行最高要求的分析。
精选QPREP抛光布为每一个抛光步骤提供了合适的布料，配合配套的QPREP金刚石悬浮液，确保了卓越的抛光效果。
