Steel Shot Conditioner for PEWTER
I started using some of my dad's rotary tumblers the other day to finish some pewter items I start making my self, that was about a month ago. I just ran out of the Steel Shot Conditioner and the company who made it is not longer on service. Do you guys know any company I can get it from? I've tried a couple cleaners but they do not work at all on the pewter, they just cleaned the steel shot.
Thank you,
