Is this good to polish stones for jewelry

It's part of what you need to fill the tumbler. The different sizes of grit are used to take stones for jewelry from a rough polish to a final smooth polish. These help prevent the stones from chipping as you polish them.

Yes. The beads protect the stones during the tumbling process and can be reused. Wash them thoroughly and use one set of beads for the coarse steps and another set for the polishing steps. That way you don't have to worry about any residue on the beads scratching your stones during the polishing process.

No. To polish rocks you need to use some kind of polishing media and water. I think it would make a bit of a mess with a vibratory polisher.

The label indicates it is good for granite, marble, or any sealed stone. I use it on my granite and silestone and it really does the job!

Yes. You can use this on fine jewelry, metal and gemstones. Great on gold, platinum, titanium and gemstones including diamond, ruby, emerald and sapphire. Not for use on softer stones such as coral, ivory, amber, malachite, pearls, opal, jade or turquoise. After you open the lid, grab the tip of the basket post and let soak in the basket for 1/2 hour. Use the included brush for heaver dirt. Rinse w/ cool water, and let dry on a towel. It does great job for our jewelry.

Yes, that is why I got it, for the intricate areas in my rings. Earings, too. I usually do two cycles and sometimes also brush with toothpaste, and a jeweler checked my rings for stone setting safety and remarked on how clean I kept my rings. Amazing what comes out in the water, but I don't do it as often as I should.

I would not use this on all gems. The cleaner is designed for silver flatware and housewares, not jewelry. It could severely damage opals, turquoise and similar soft stones, coated crystals, and pearls. If you need to clean silver with gemstones, use a cleaner designed for jewelry.

This solution should not damage the metal. However, some artificial stones do not tolerate silver cleaning solutions very well. I would suggest that you take the cap from a water bottle or juice bottle, and place a bit of this solution in it. You can then put the tip of the post in the solution, without placing the entire earring in it. Once you are done, just quickly rinse with water, and pat dry. No matter what you use this for, it only needs a few seconds to clean jewelry. Don't walk away. If you leave metal too long in the solution, it with start to strip the shine or sheen from the metal. You don't need more that 45 seconds; usually less than that to fully polish your jewelry, and make it look sparkling new. This is a great product. If you are still concerned about damaging your posts, you can put toothpaste on a paper towel, and rub the posts. It does pretty well at removing most tarnish. Hope this helps.

The label says it will clean "all stainless steel surfaces." If your jewelry isn't too detailed or filigreed, it should work fine, but some rubbing is necessary to bring out the best shine.

This is a sanding set which will polish metal. I have used these pads on both wood and steel to prep them for finishing. It will bring a hard surface up to a mirror finish if used as directed and with patience. I can't see any reason that sterling silver would be any different from polishing the steel. I would advise caution using on any thinly plated materials (as you might risk running through a plate coating. Also with antiques sometimes resale values can be harmed by altering the original finishes. But will it polish it? I'd wager it would quite nicely, though if you wish to use a less abrasive method I would suggest a metal polish or paste buffing compound for polishing metals, like Flitz.

I'm pretty sure you can. I have a diamond sharpener from Smith's and it advises to use honing oil. So I doubt it'll cause anything bad. I use this oil on all my stones.

I have been using it for many years; but only on silver-sterling or silverplate with a sponge (one usually comes with). On stones use a good liquid that comes in a bottle-use the brush that comes with it to brush gently on the stones so as not to damage them. Rinse both jewelry and silver with warm water no soap so as not to rub off the polish. I love the results!

Yes. Dont use if there are stones gled on. I suggest a silver cleaning cloth for that.

No- but I would stick to gold and silver. I would imagine they would clean or buff up your gems but work visibly on gold and silver. I use it on my wife's diamond gold ring and I have to say- it sparkles like new with No effort. I also use it to clean my stainles steal watch and crystal.

I prefer them to metal jeweler's files and use them to shape and smooth stone cahochons and metal settings. The 100 grit will leave scratches that are a little caorser than what metal files make.
