The only things I might at is that when you are done use 91% Isoproply Alcohol after the water rinse as it displaces the water & evaporates quickly leaving no traces of spotting. On items you can reach areas that need cleaning easily (primarily bowls & large mouth vases), go to any auto parts store & pick up a can of fine grade rubbing compound & use a mix of 1/3 to 2/3 water to compound & use cotton balls to apply rubbing vigorously & when film starts to set add a few drops of water. Rinse & repeat the process probably 2-3 times. Although its work you'll be suprised that the RC will polish the sickness out without resorting to chemicals. Now if you use a Dremel & extension with a cotton attachment make ABSOLUTELY certain that you NEVER exceed speed 2 & make certain to add the drops of water to the paste as soon as the film appears. Speed 2 no problems, anything higher will start to generate heat & heat cracks glass. Now for the tumblers, a rock tumbler & cerium will do for small items, however its its a not a bad idea to use small plastic beads you can get cheap at any of the hobby jewelery stores instead of lead or steel shot. For the big stuff...well a buddy of mine put together a roller tumbler bench & even though he kept costs down it still amounted to $350. Best idea of course is to not buy sick glass unless the piece is really, really, really good & worth the effort. Ken
