At MJR Tumblers, we know that the difference between a "nice" rock and a show-stopping gemstone often comes down to one critical, yet frequently overlooked step: burnishing.
What is Burnishing?
Burnishing is the essential final "cleaning and brightening" stage of the tumbling process. While the polishing stage creates the shine, burnishing removes the microscopic film of polish and minerals—often caused by water hardness—that can leave your stones looking hazy or dull once they dry.
How It Works
- Deep Cleaning: It flushes out lingering slurry and grit trapped in tiny crevices or "vugs" that water alone cannot reach.
- Surface Brightening: For rocks, it strips away stubborn residues to reveal the true "wet look" luster underneath.
- Metal Finishing: For jewelry and metals, burnishing goes a step further by smoothing out microscopic peaks and valleys through "cold flow," which compresses the metal's surface to create a mirror-like finish and increase surface hardness.
Why MJR Tumblers' Proprietary Blend is the Best
Our specialized Burnishing Soap is not just your average soap that can actually cause more harm than good. We’ve developed a Proprietary Blend specifically formulated for high-performance tumbling.
- No "Concrete" Residue: Unlike common detergents, our blend acts as a powerful water softener, preventing polish from drying into a rock-hard residue.
- Barrel Safe: Many household soaps contain additives that can degrade rubber tumbling barrels. Our blend is strictly pH-balanced and oil-free to protect your equipment.
- Superior Luster: Our proprietary formula creates a high-density, frothy slurry that holds contaminants in suspension, ensuring they rinse away completely rather than settling back onto your stones or metalwork.
Target Applications
- Primary: Rock Tumbling: Use after your final polishing stage for 1 to 4 hours (or overnight) to achieve that professional, mirror-like finish.
- Secondary: Jewelry & Metals: Perfect for use with steel shot to brighten silver, copper, and brass. It removes oxidation and surface burrs while work-hardening the metal for a more durable finish.
Pro Tip: Perform the "Buffing Test"—rub a dry, polished stone vigorously on a piece of denim for 10 seconds. If it gets shinier, you need a burnishing cycle with our Proprietary Blend.

delightful read
Format: Kindle
What a delightful read. The characters are awesome, the plot was so good, I loved it. I was intrigued and it kept me wanting more. Told in multiple pov, the book sucks you in and doesn’t let go. I cannot wait to read the next book.

not bad
Format: Kindle
I loved the plot of this book. The characters just didn’t have a lot of depth. The connections and “love” just weren’t communicated very well in the writing. The author didn’t write the sweet psycho trope very well at all either. Lachlan was just a mess of a character.

A Beta Worth Rooting For
Format: Kindle
In Spare, Violet Fox flips the omegaverse on its head, giving us a Beta heroine determined to make her mark. Joining the Beta Trials to support her sick father, she's thrown into a pack that doesn't want her, especially the possessive Alphas.
But here's the twist: their sweet Omega turns out to be her scent match. Cue the angst, forbidden tension, and a slow-burn romance that will make your heart ache in the best way.
Violet Fox delivers an emotional, refreshing take on the genre, proving Betas aren't "spares." They're stars.

Beta, Alpha, Omega oh my!
Format: Kindle
Omegas are precious and given to Alphas & their packs... but the Betas want in too. To this end, the Beta government is rolling out its trial of assigning a Beta to each Alpha-Omega pack. But forcing a Beta into a pack where they are not wanted will not end well... Of course, no one expected the Omega to fall for the assigned Beta. Great read and cliffhanger

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters.
That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception.
SPOILER:
The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured.
I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.
