Dear metallographic Experts,

It is said that the Pure Aluminium metal , a softest material , hence the diamond particles get stuck plastically after 1 micron diamond polishing. Experts are saying, this problem can be resolved by polishing using colloidal silica.Even i tried the previous step, eventually the diamond particles didn't go off.

I also have tried with alumina suspension polishing , in which another issue i have found , that is i am not able to obtain a mirror like finish even after a long time polishing.

What should be done,Please help me in this and give me suggestions.

Thank you for understanding.
