There are 2 option for the polish. The first is cerium oxide and the second is chrome oxide. We prefer chrome oxide for most rocks as it gives a great polish and is easier to clean the polish out of any holes or cracks. Cerium tends to leave white in any cracks and is difficult to remove. Be warned chrome oxide can be very messy.
These are a great little tumbler for rock and glass polishing or polishing jewellery or other metals.
Rotary tumblers are ideal for rock tumbling and polishing as they will give the rocks a rounded finish.
Rocks can be polished from start to finish in these tumblers. There are 4 steps to polishing rocks and each step takes a week.
The first step in 80 grit silicone carbide. This will shape the rocks
The second step is 240 grit silicone carbide for a week.
Third step is 600 grit for a week which will leave the rocks with a dull sheen on them.
The fourth step is the polish for the final week.
This means 4 weeks to polish rock
Please note this will be sent in 2 packages.
Please note rocks should only be tumbled on speed number 1 and no girt courser than 80 grit should be used
