Clay Pots can be Rejuvenated

Bonsai enthusiasts have found new life for their ceramic pots by removing unsightly mineral deposits with Sandflex Erasers.
When growing houseplants, it is common to have mineral deposits build up on the inner top edge of the plant pot surface. Many gardeners find the same ugly sediment after transplanting their plants to a larger pot. With bonsai, the trees are in the pots for even longer periods of time and therefore the build-up becomes even more noticeable.
But those nasty mineral deposits can be removed from both glazed and non-glazed pots. Even the heaviest deposits can be removed by using a medium grit Sandflex Eraser and then a fine grit can be used to remove the remainder from the surface. If desired, a mineral oil can also be applied to add even more luster to the surface.
