Abstract

To polish glass articles, they are immersed alternately in a polishing bath consisting of sulphuric acid containing hydrofluoric acid and in a salt-removing bath of sulphuric acid of concentration at least 66% and finally, when the required polish has been achieved, they are rinsed with water. The polishing bath consists of sulphuric acid of concentration 50 to 60% containing 5 to 10% of hydrofluoric acid, the polishing bath being kept at a temperature between 40 DEG and 60 DEG C. and the sulphuric acid bath above 60 DEG C., the sulphuric acid bath being preferably 10 DEG to 20 DEG C. higher than that of the polishing bath. The concentrations of the polishing bath is maintained by addition of highly concentrated hydrofluoric acid or fluosulphonic acid and that of the salt-removing bath by addition of oleum. The fluorine compounds escaping from the hotter salt-removing bath are recovered and reconverted to the acid for return to the polishing bath. One or more heavy metal salts such as iron chloride or sulphate or zinc, copper or silver sulphates, or potassium permanganate, chromic acid or hydrogen peroxide may be added to the polishing bath to give more intensive polishing action and the number of alternate dippings is thereby reduced. Particular examples are given, the articles being swung in the polishing bath for 10 to 20 seconds and in the salt-removing bath for 3 to 5 seconds, the sequence being repeated for 10 to 18 treatments before the final rinsing in water. Plated glasses with a thin colourless coating of glass is similarly treated.
