mmuehlba Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 well here is a very different MFC marble very dark and signs of a lot of use and life in a marble bag . so would this be a black brick or just a black marble with oxblood , for sure a good # 9 and tail . open to all answers , got a few when just a little water . . Mike It is small at only 5/8 . wish it was better as it is dark needs a lot of light to be seen . rare or ?/ worth a wax job ? http://smg.photobucket.com/user/mmuehlba/library/Black%20brick there are a few more pics in the album should be able to see all the pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lstmmrbls Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 Looks like a Brick?? If there is dark green transparent glass that is making the black(which I do not see) it would be a Green Brick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmuehlba Posted June 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 No green it is just a solid black and a lot of black the more I look I can see the oxblood well into the black so may be just a brick with no white . wish it was better as it does look like just oxblood was added but I guess not how they were made ? so then is a black brick just a ? or just a regular with a name for more value ?

clydetul62 Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 It looks a little hazy and pitted. Give it a nice Brazilian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 Very nice marble - in need of a bath. The base looks green to me too, which also explains why it looks brownish where the color is just below the surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnome Punter Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 They are right Picture 3 shows green GRANTED it could be because you took a picture on a brown surface Try it on a white surface, typing paper or some such, and see what happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmuehlba Posted June 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 well I did the Brazilian last night now shiny and bright but still a very dark marble hard to paint being so small , so better or worse ? I could always soak in water and make dull . Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarbleDawg86 Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 What are you using to "wax" them, Mike? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmuehlba Posted June 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 it is a water solvable floor wax from a school , It is a polymer and was used in the floors and was a soft wax in other words we would not have to burnish with a machine to get a shine . it has been a lot of years so I forgot the name .
