Beveling
The beveling of glass or mirror edges creates a very elegant look and is used often on table tops, vanity mirrors and wall mirrors. The beveling process uses diamond grinding wheels to remove a portion of the glass edge and then uses felt wheels and polishing compound to bring the edge to a shiny clear finish once again. The finished look is beautiful and can really enhance the overall appearance of any project that uses glass or mirror.
