Clean and Polish Your Stained Glass Art Work

Create a Bright and Protective Finish for Solder and Came

Stained glass supplies required to polish and clean your stained glass are finishing compound and polish.

Finishing compound removes tarnish and residue from solder lines. It will also protect your stained glass art work.

Polish is used as a compliment to your finishing compound. It provides a protective film and a shiny look that begs to be noticed.

1. Pour finishing compound on your stained glass art work which should be thoroughly dry. (Use only enough to lightly cover glass, solder lines and frame)
2. Use a rag to spread finishing compound over the art work
3. Once compound dries (turns to a white film), use a soft scrub brush or rag to polish off the compound
4. Repeat this on the other side of your stained glass art work

Steps for Applying Polish

1. Apply a small amount of polish to solder lines and frame
2. Allow to completely dry and polish with a rag

Finishing compound is to be applied to glass, solder and zinc frame.

Polish is to be applied to solder lines and zinc frame, not the glass.

The entire project needs to shine.
