tank dismantle and glass cutting

Polishing is really just them sanding the edges with a sander.It takes off all the sharpness on the edges.Most places do it automatically.Saves them and others from seriously cutting themselves.
its usually in the cost of the price of cutting.

actualy last time i got glass cut there was honed, which is what your talking about where they just knock off the edges. Ground where they make it flat, and pollished where they make it clear. honed was free, ground was a little bit of a charge and pollished was expensive.

Different places do different things.
The place I usually go to sands it down to a polish finish and they have never charged extra for it(that I know of).Its always included.It does make it alot nicer when they do this.I usually buy the glass to make aquariums or for sumps.
