Get some Zircon-Brite from DVA . I love this product
The main reason I don't only polish is that I want to give the unit some flourecence which, other than the new Lava, is missing in zirconia. I don't mind polishing thru pinpoint contacts as they're so small and not going anywhere anytime soon...Are you glazing your monolithic Zirconia or polishing? Glazing on the axial surfaces and just polishing the occlusals? This was brought up a couple of times at the Spectrum Day seminars in Chicago. A couple of presenters talked about how glaze will crack and wear off within three years.

Very light sandblasting like 2th said prior to glaze application. Check it out with a black light to see what a polished only crown looks like compared to one with fluo glaze. Could be a big problem for some patients in certain lighting enviroments but fine for Halloween...

I hear ya!!! Just, given the choice to add this one rather critical element, seems worth my time and goal. Seems this issue has missed some attention and just trying to put it out there...Can't help but digress a bit.
We used to he the black light Halloween issue 40 ... 60 years then layered ceramic got better over the years. There are technicians skilled enough producing teeth like nature. Dentistry has digressed in the sense they have given up on the artistry of the crown .. to a material that initially they were glad to have it tooth colored. Now the requests are hand polished and 3d shades... With halos and translucency....etc. wat!!!!! And for less than a hundred... WAT!!!!
I've expanded on this many times in the past.

I Agree with you Rob, Lustre Paste, InSync are not glazes and are applied as such.I've expanded on this many times in the past.
