    i wanted to ask what polishing compound did you use. 1. is it safe to use for bone jewelry that makes skin contact 2. or is their specific bone polishing compound thats safe for skin contact

  • @StockmanOriginal

    Hello Silent Carver,happy to have you with us. I use a basic compound which you can buy at most hardware stores. It’s just a very fine abrasive suspended in some sort of wax. I have never had a problem with it in regards to skin contact and l use it for bone and silver. Polishing compound comes in a variety of grades and colors, l like a medium grade which is white or tan. I avoid the rouge because it gets into the pores of the bone and leaves it messy. Let me know how you make out.
