Will this work on quartz? We have some etch marks from some harsh chemicals and want to know if it can be restored to its original finish.

We used on travertine and it works great. Try it in a small area to see if removes the etch mark. I think it will do fine. We bought the cleaner and polish too. It helps to reseal also

Not sure. It is a very gentle abrasive paste. It works with a lot of polishing and rubbing on high shine marble so it would probably work on Quartz.

We tried on Marble & no result, it was total waste of money & time.Amount of time we spend cleaning it would have been better to call a professional cleaner.

Its a good idea to separate some of them obsidian was in mine and they just disappear if tumbled with quartz. They give you enough rocks for around 1 batch but some of them will come out poorly if all tumbled together.

It's a sealer with a gloss finish. I'm not sure what you're using it on, but it's meant for absorptive surfaces like rough stone and grout. It's not meant for an already sealed surface or a very smooth surface like granite. Be careful not to let water sit on it for too long. If water sits on the finish, it gets kind of soft and milky. I used it on the slate tile backsplash of our kitchen and it worked perfectly.

I purchased this to use on natural granite countertops. The package doesn't say anything about this being safe for quartz countertops like Cambria. I also checked the Cambria website, but it doesn't recommend any specific products. Cambria is supposed to be a pretty tough product, but if it were me I wouldn't take any chances-- I would look for a product that specifically says it is safe for quartz counters.

It's wax of some type and when dry it doesn't come off easily. I suspect that any solvent based cleaner would remove it but I've never tried. After it sets awhile, water wont remove it. I would think that it would stick nicely to the etched parts of the pattern, but I don't think the smooth glass surface would hold up in the long term.

I'm not sure what you mean by "crackle finished"? Are you speaking of painted crackle effects or something involving heat? I would think any superficial treatment of paints and resists would not matter that the glass was tempered or not? If you are speaking of cracking the glass, as in fried marbles, then I would think not?

No, I also had a vinegar mishap and this didn't work at all. I have found nothing to remove the etches on mine.

We have granite countertops and that's what we use it on. I had never heard of quartzite, so I looked it up online. I found a helpful article about it on countertopinvestigtor.com. It is a stone product (the quartzite), so I would imagine you'd be fine using this cleaner. We also use this cleaner on our glass cooktop with no problems, and we've been using this cleaner for over a year.

I haven't used it on stone, I wouldn't think it would, not sure if it's tough enough. I have used it on plastic and metal. As far as being durable, not really super durable. It's small, about the size of one of those big marks-a-lot pertinent markers. You should have no problem engraving symbols, the tip is very small

This was available for my Miele Quartz model, so I went with it. I understand another UK version (not yet available in USA) is expected soon. I do not know the details.

Unfortunately not. This stuff works with the clear coating of the car paint. I believe they make scratch removers for crystal watch faces, but I cannot say if they really work as I have had no experience using those products. Take it to a jeweler for a repair estimate.

I am not sure, I am a jeweler and used thid for polishing wampum (quahog shells / hard clam shells) and it worked wonderfully for that purpose. Sorry, I am probably not much help.

Sorry, I've never tried that. My use for this product is as a resist when etching glass.

Etched glass: I believe it would work very well. I have used it on several surfaces- wood, plastic & metal. it does need a texture to 'catch' the pigment but etched glass would be just fine. For instance, sanded wood was still rough enough to 'take'. As for permanent... yes. You could clean it off with a solvent, but I would consider it permanent. Especially in etched glass, it would be nearly impossible to remove it from the sanded texture. This product is like a metallic ointment, almost. After you dab it onto the surface, you buff it a little and it begins to shine. It is not a raised texture like paint or even gold leaf, it is an extremely thin pigment that pretty much becomes part of the product it is on. For this reason, I dab it onto a clean cloth and then dab the cloth onto the project. It is very easy to work with and looks very professional.

I haven't tried on anything like gems of stones, it works on silver well though. Sorry

I use the cerium oxide to mirror polish gemstones. I have used it to polish the crystal on my watch and it does any outstanding job. Gordon Glass Cerium Oxide is the best that I have ever used.

I only use it on stainless steel and gold watch cases. Some of the attachments may work on cloudy glass, but it would be difficult to use on the inside surfaces.
