In my personal opinion there is no way a CNC will make a perfect polish. Any machined polish will leave lines. I've heard glory stories about how "this" tool or "that" tool wont leave the lines but I simply dont believe it. Granted you may have smaller lines that are less noticable but ultimately, they are still there. Nothing beats polishing the stone by hand, its craftsmanship, its an art. Theres nothing bad about the CNC polish, in fact, I did the kitchen and vanities in my own house on our CNC and I have no complaints whatsoever. Theres a definate noticable difference, but you have to be pretty anal about it to pitch a fuss.
If you are that worried about it then simply have someone run a hand polish over the work the CNC has done, or do that from the beginning and save your machine time. |
