Hi all. I seem to be having trouble with some of the slabs I have.  They will not take a nice polish or shine. I do not have a leather polishing wheel yet but is there some kind of oil I can put on these cabs to make them shine? I heard about baby oil.  Is there anything else?

Thank You

Hi all. Does anyone know of some good rock hunting places near San Antonio Texas? We will be there in 3 weeks.

Thanks Mike and Mary

Slabber are you saying I need to go back and grind some more? I do have 2 pieces one more rough so Light House I will give it a try with a leather pad, need to find one though.

Thanks you guys for the great info!.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks  Mike and Mary.

Wow thank you all very much! I will look into your suggestions and let u know how they work. Again thank you :-)

Thanks for your help on this.  Is there anything I can use to help add a nice polish or clean-up to my cabs? I was thinking of some kind of liquid polish, oil etc.? Thanks I appreciate any help you can give.

Welcome from Pensacola FL.

I bought 2 pieces of this slab and got a beautiful golf, green almost looks like a turtle shell. cab. It is very soft. Any ideas what it is? thank you.

Mike and Mary

Hi all I am looking for your help again I really do appreciate it.  First of all can anyone tell me what the stone may be? Also I have polished it and only the blue stone in the cabochon will polish the white and darker color does not polish at all.  Is there a way to bring out the lust in the darker color? oil etc. any suggestion would be greatly appreciate.

Thanks

Mike and Mary

Wow thank you Bob I appreciate it very much.

This is a great piece. When I bought the slab it was black, when I cut it I saw the pink. It turned out beautifully? What is it? Thanks

Wow Bob I can find almost nothing on Bayouite, but you are right a Google search turned up only one reference to Bayouite and a picture https://www.flickr.com/photos/42116660@N03/5200961590

It says it was bought at the 1987 Gem Show in Tucson.  So how rare is the piece I have I wonder.
