QPREP lubricants (diamond lubricants) based on water, alcohol and oil are used with the polishing products mentioned above. The lubricant ensures even distribution of the polishing product on the polishing cloth. In addition, it also serves to cool the cloth and sample while polishing.
QPREP Diamond lubricant yellow (water-based) is especially environmentally friendly and provides an even lubricating film on the polishing cloth.
QPREP Diamond lubricant blue (alcohol-based) has a higher viscosity and surface tension. Due to this, the lubricant remains longer on the polishing cloth. This allows a more economical dosage.
QPREP Diamond lubricant red (oil based) is an oil - water emulsion and due to its higher viscosity ensures a consistently stable lubricating film on the polishing cloth. Optimal for heat as well as water sensitive materials.
