After three or four abrasive rock tumbling steps with successively finer and finer adhesive, the rocks are tumbled with pieces of an elastomer, for example plastic foam. The plastic foam may be polyurethane foam. The result is a higher polish than could be achieved by prior abrasive and finishing approaches. A polishing compound may be embedded in the polyurethane foam. Advantages of doing this include that the user gets multiple polishings out of the material base, there is less breakage of the rocks during tumbling process, and the tumbling mix will not sludge up if the user were to let the barrel sit after tumbling.

A denim vintage wash device includes a washing drum and a plurality of friction elements. The washing drum is rotationally installed in a machine body that is connected with an inlet tube through which water is fed into the washing drum. The plurality of friction elements are accommodated in the washing drum and consist of bamboo pieces. In practice, the washing drum in which denim clothes to be contacted by the friction elements are placed and water is filled is enabled to rotate. Then, the denim clothes rubbed by the friction elements are faded and/or outworn.

The present invention relates to a method for smoothing a surface of a component, in which a component is placed in a liquid-solids mixture; a relative movement is produced between the liquid-solids mixture and the component; thus there is a flow of the liquid-solids mixture along the surface; wherein there is provided in the liquid-solids mixture a guide surface, along which the liquid-solids mixture flows, wherein a directional component toward the surface is imposed on the flow.

A method includes providing a metal ring and pastelessly slide-grinding at least one surface of the metal ring with grinding bodies, preferably until a predefined surface topography of the metal ring is achieved, which surface topography preferably has an Rsk value that is greater than or equal to 0.25 and/or an Rk value between 0.3 and 1.35 and/or Rpk value between 0.05 and 0.4 and/or an Rvk value between 0.2 and 1.2 and/or an Ra value between 0.1 and 0.4.

A method for subjecting garment accessories to a surface electrolytic treatment provides various metallic colors to metallic garment accessories in a cost effective manner. The method can provide a first metallic color on one side of outer surface of the garment accessory and provide a second metallic color on the other side of the outer surface, by placing one or more metallic garment accessories in an electrolytic solution in a non-contact state with an anode and a cathode for passing electric current through the electrolytic solution, passing electric current through the electrolytic solution and generating a bipolar phenomenon on the garment accessory.
