My understanding is that polishing a window is normally used for gemstones. I'm wondering how polishing might affect the internal matrix of a meteorite.

  Hi Gary,

You can always polish a window instead of cutting one. That is, unless you
would like a small end cut to go with the larger stone as well.

Have fun!
