click on 'quote' in the bottom right hand corner...



Ok... thank you oops

Well i have the results to what worked best in the options listed by you all. thank you u 2tongue2

The worst was the toothpaste, a sticky mess not worth it

The red paste did not really change the dullness, (it's not for jewelery)

The mineral oil is only good to rip the buffing pad to pieces

The green past did a nice job, you can see difference in color and nuance and it did shine but the green stays on the shell, just a shade... to much

The absolute best...will looking for the toothpaste i found some New finish car polish

It is THE product, until now, that did a very, very good job, easy to use and shines like a bran new car.:thumbsup: .

Investing a little amount on a good car polish, better than what i had available, not as old anyway is worth the moneu and i will have some for the rest of my life.

Any more suggestions, i will try them out.

And i still need help knowing what tip does what

Thank you
see you soon.

Thank you for...

Unless you are thinking of doing some kind of engraving on the shells. (i don't know how to quote)

Now I know what they are used for. The discription only tell you what to use it on, not what it will do (result)slaphead

Tooth past for shure! I should have an old tube burried somewhere around.

The rubber polishing points, cleans and defines grooves, also effective on many stones and ceramics. It did not polish, it stained the shells. ?

The drum sander mandrel used for the round sanding bands. Why do the explode? Flying missil...and i use them a lot. Very dangerous shocked

I've got a red paste but it's very hard and dry,,,i will try it with a little water and i just have to try mineral oil for the finishing touch...get back with the result.

My Dremel is suspended from a mounted stand, for little craft it gets to heavy so i got the extension shaft,,,sort of a pen you hold. Glasses, gloves and do not use the little metal brush, the wire fly's out of it and into you!

My first try with the shells was not a remarkable succesohwell ...i used the green past with the felt.

The silicon carbide grinding stones are designed (in the book)to work on stone, glass, ceramics, porcelain and non-ferrous metals...How? It's not working for me.

Thank you very much and i will get back with the results...

Hi,

I badly need advice on the usage of the different points, brush, rubber polishing points and so on that is used with a Dremel tool.

My immediate question is,

What can i use to polish sea shells?

I've got 4 sets (kits) so i should have what is needed.

Thank you in advance.
