[QUOTE="Explorer385, post: 178101, member: 1849"] Hi all, Got some nice pieces of jasper from around Pebbly Beach and have tumbled them with 220 grit, then 400, then 600 for about a week each. Tumbled in a barrel reserved for polish only with tin oxide for a week but they are still a bit dull. Is tin oxide ok for jasper or should I use a different polish. Have some cerium but haven't used it on them yet. Lovely smooth round pebbles but a bit dull. Want them to really shine. Any advice appreciated. Terry [/QUOTE]
