    Thank you so much for sharing this! I did not want to start messing with powerful acids, this seems much less hazardous!! You two are awesome. I am about to start rubbing out my first Andamooka that I got from you on Opal Auctions. Wish me luck!

    The whole process is mega exciting. I will try it with different stones from the Alps. I'm really looking forward to the results.... has never been tried before.... Most of the stones here have pyrites, a lot of very small quartz veins etc... The wise man tries
    Let's see what happens... Cheers

      @@OpalAuctions53Frogs Thanks Mate for the info. Have the first batch in the oven now at 90 degrees and will leave it like that for 4-5 hours.
      I'm really curious how the different stones react to it. I'll keep you posted...Maybe a Mega Super Tooper Ultra stone will come :)

    Does treatment like this give the same results as the acid method. I have some andamooka I would love to treat. Would you take your stones to 400 grit or 600 prior to treatment when shaping.
