          Application No. 08/224,211                                                  

                                      APPENDIX                                        
               1. A method of polishing a ferroelectric material                      
          comprising the steps of:                                                    
               (a) providing a ferroelectric surface to be polished;                  
               (b) applying an acidic polish solution to said surface                 
          containing from a finite amount greater than zero to about 80%              
          by volume of an acid taken from the class consisting of                     
          organic acids, mineral acids, reducing acids and oxidizing                  
          acids and combinations thereof, from a finite amount greater                
          than zero to about 80% by volume of a strong oxidizing agent                
          and the remainder water; and                                                
               (c) polishing said surface with a polishing member                     
          disposed external to and not a part of said polish solution                 
          while said polish solution is on said surface.                              





















                                          1
