Maybe I have not read carefully enough, but I have not before come across a reference to "Polishing room records". Do they still exist?
Just reading about polishing rooms gives me bad vibes. My father was a watchmaker and died of lung cancer at an early age. When he died, his lung tissue had many fragments of what was later identified as "commercial buffing compounds". The pathologist told us that buffing compounds had caused the cancer. Keep wearing those face masks.
