What wheels for Felisatti

Post by Shell Kurtis »

For those of you who purchased Felisatti's last year, how do you like it? Can you recommend which wheels I should get?

Thanks,
Shell

4" Vitrified where you can get them, 60, 150, 300, 500.
Some of the higher grits may only be available in a resin bonded. Vitrified costs more but lasts longer.

I have a Felisetti and an Alpha. I like both. You do need to know that both have parts that wear out. They are called brushes, but look nothing like brushes. Anyway, I agree with Phil on the pads.

I have a felliseti angle grinder with diamond pads that I use on my glass.
A friend asked me if he could use it tomorrow to polish a marble piece of his. Will that work?
