Finishing of SS Flatware

We need to clean/polish Stainless steel flatware. We are using a tumbler with SS media. We are looking for suggestion for a cleaner/degreaser/polisher in an aqueous system.

There are a lot of chemical compounds that can be used with S.S. media in a tumbling operation. Some very expensive, others less so. I am sure you have a number of chemical companies in your country that can help you. There aren't a lot of advantages to have stuff shipped from the USA to you. If you can't find locally, try a website or source from Japan or Europe. Look under Deburring or burnishing compounds.
