This is a video test of attempted polishing after a 200 grit honing cut. This is significant in that marble is typically polished after a 400, 800 diamond honing pass that is usually at the end of a grit progression (120, 220, 400 polish for example) or sometimes even higher polishing grits of 1600 or 3500 grit.
Because the assumption, that the stone wont polish after a 200 grit honing (in this video we went 50, 100 200 and followed this with 200 wet diamonds) this video is shows it is in fact possible. Are there any applications for this procedure in the real world, who knows, but we did establish that a polish can be achieved.
