I'm pretty much convinced to try one of CBN wheels from Baltic Abrasives and their ebay store. Anyone who would advise caution on my part? Thanks

I switched from the pink wheels to Diamond cbn wheels last winter . I got two 3/16 wheels and one 1/8 wheel . I would never go back to the pink wheels . I clean and flip the wheels regularly . I like the fact that you never have to dress the wheels .
How do you clean your wheels?

do not use a steel wire brush on the cbn/diamond plated wheels rather use a brass one. On plated wheels wash and rinse but do not use a dressing stick. Dressing sticks are for resinoid bonded wheels.

There are special ‘cleaning’ sticks supplied with some CBN wheels. Not ‘dressing’ as with vitrified wheels.

Confusing the 2 could lead to unsatisfactory performance.
