You can repair gouges and deep scratches on surfaces that otherwise would require too much thickness loss by filing or sandpapering away. A burnisher will surface-hardened annealed metal just prior to polishing with buffs. This is advantageous because hardened metal takes a better polish than annealed metal. I use a rocker burnisher to set cabochons, but the curved burnisher shown in this video is excellent for dressing the top of the bezel. Use the side edge of the burnisher with the tip curving around the setting. Pushing downward while moving the burnisher back and forth will compress the top of the bezel against the stone and create a brilliant and uniform bezel edge. You are also less likely to slip with this tool and gouge the side of the bezel when pressing vertically than if you try to use a rocker for this final process. Used in conjunction with a GRS Benchmate is ideal.

Very nice. Seems to be capable of some light deburrimg too.
It could but I would be concerned that it would just push the bur over--I still recommend filing or scraping off burs...
