Since the film we produce is pure diamond, resharpening the tool with a diamond wheel will take a long time. In addition the process we use to prepare the tool for diamond growth alters the chemistry of the tool at the surface. Since this chemistry needs to be very closely managed, we cannot guarantee the results of a tool that has been recoated.
