Abstract
Abstract An improved solid cleaning and polishing compound consisting of a mixture of non-abrasive powders and oils. A powder-like mixture of diatomaceous silica and jeweler's rouge is combined with a mixture of mineral and linseed oils. The resultant combination of mixtures is sifted (to remove undesirably sized particles) and then stored in an air-tight container for a period of time sufficient to achieve suitable curing or aging.
