The F1 felt pads get dirtier and need replacing I’m guessing more frequently than the pads on the Diamond unit will require changing out. introduces the new DIAMOND Ball Polisher. I can only attribute this to the F1 felt pads on my Bludworth compared to the coarser pads on the Diamond. Using the same solution, the balls come out of my Bludworth polisher with a noticeably higher luster than the Diamond polisher. Although the motor still works fine, the unit itself (the plastic housing and lid) is virtually falling apart and I have to hold the lid down constantly while operating to prevent the lid from popping up and balls flying all over the place. My Bludworth polisher has lasted me 26+ years and has held up for 26,000+ cycles of balls, on the same motor, replacing the pads every couple years with F1 felt. The only issue I have with my new Diamond unit is the pads they use on the sprocket, on the platter surface, and on the sides that the spinning balls come in contact with are in my opinion too abrasive to obtain a high polished finish on the balls.
