Tony,
I almost always start jobs with a 220 cut.
It eliminates most abrasion from the surface.
However-in your case I don't think the beginning cut was the issue.
I suspect after doing 4 cuts on a cream colored(very porous) limestone the stone retained moisture.
When you tried to polish did you get a blotchy result.
We cut those stones and go back next day to polish-
They polish up great when dry-

I did a test on some cream colored limestone from South America.
Most of the house it looks like a high gloss marble with good clarity.
One hall way that gets a lot of traffic where I did the test I could not get the same clarity.
The limestone cut really fast. So I started with 400 800 1600 3500 5x Crystalizer.
Do you think 1 would get better clarity starting with 220 I did not have time to do a second
test.
