    Where can I find an emery cloth?

    Local hardware stores will have one. Emery cloth is just a stronger structured sandpaper with a different chemical compound to do the sanding/smoothing.

    Will these same items work on antique cut glass? I have a small water pitcher that has several small chips in the edge of the spout.
