Optical Grade Cerium Oxide 2Kg

Cerium Oxide Powder 2Kg

This is a high grade cerium oxide used for that final polish when tumbling.   A good all-purpose polish powder – excellent for polishing glass but also suitable for agate, quartz, obsidian, opal, etc.  This is the peach-orange (“pink”) version of the cerium.

How to use this with a polishing kit:

Mix some Cerium oxide powder into water to a form a thin paste like slurry eg. milk-like consistency, in a small spray bottle which can be used to apply to your polishing pad

Clean the glass surface removing all dirt, grease and residue

Apply the polishing compound mixture to the polishing pad or glass surface

Make sure to mark the inside of the glass with the crayon to identify the area you are working on

With the mounted pad in the drill begin working the area required.

Move the pad up and down, left and right in even movements on the work area.

Keep the surface cool and wet to prevent the glass getting too hot. (Very Important!!)

Inspect the work area by wiping off the residue and keep working until the area is satisfactorily polished

On completion wash and store your polishing pad to use again on your next project.
