Steuben Crystal Vase Repair Sick Glass Cloudy Scratched
May 5th, 2010 by Marc Konys - posted in All Repair Projects, Sick Glass, Steuben Crystal RepairThis Steuben crystal vase was sent to me for cleaning. I thought it was sick. ( cloudy from hard water stains) It was not sick it was scratched someone tried to clean it with an abrasive. They made it a lot worse by putting in thousands of scratches up and down in side the vase. I was able to carefully polish them out . Steuben Crystal has one of the highest lead content this is why the glass is clear.

Hi Marc!
Can you advise what type of product/tools you used to polish out the scratches?
Many thanks,
MG
