I have quite a few silver-capped Copal beads (and some brass capped ones, also) that I would like to tumble in walnut hulls that are about the size of a grain of sand.
Is it safe to tumble Copal? I also usually add a tiny bit of brass/siver polish - it's my husband's reloading tumbler & polish. It's done a marvelous job on my other silver with no damage to the finish, i.e. dents, nicks, etc. I just don't want the Copal to crack, etc.
Anyone done this before? Should I polish by hand? Will a silver polish wreck the polish of the Copal? TIA!
