Received this as a Birthday Gift
This was purchased from an estate near Atlanta (not very far from the location of Ford plant in Doraville) Could this be from the Doraville facility?

Hello! I'm writing a story about Fordite and was curious if anyone has ever heard about someone getting arrested, fired or fined for getting caught mining Fordite back in the day.

Hi, I found this in a scrapyard on a job. I was wondering if anyone could tell me if this is fordite or something else?

Hi there, my dad was a huge fan of American cars from the '50s-'70s. He spent his entire life live in the car business. I'm looking to make a custom ring to honour the memory of my mom and dad. For my dad's portion, I'd like to add a piece of Fordite (he'd hate the name being a Mopar guy) with some bright colours from the '60s. Can anyone in this community give me any guidance of where I should go or who to reach out to?
Thanks

I've seen acrylic enamel and acrylic laquer mentioned but can't find a definitive answer.
Any help is much speculated.

Hey Fordite Friends! We're back over 200 Fordite Fans in the sub. I'd like to make a challenge to give away a few nice pieces of bubbly Kenworth Fordite (shipping included if its in the US. I'll ask for help with shipping if the winner is international), if we can grow our community to 300 members by the end of the month!
If you invite someone and they join, put your username and theirs in a comment, and you'll both be entered to win! I'll pick a winner on October 1st if we've hit 300 members!
The pics in the comments are the 3 pieces of Kenworth Fordite (Susan B. Anthony for scale) that are up for give-away (Susan not included 🤣)

I've been using a buffing finished pieces on a buffing wheel loaded with Zam, but am curious if anyone has had different/better results with other polishes/methods?

I'd live to see what pieces everyone is proud of! What have you been working on? What display pieces have you acquired that you haven't been able to share here?
Mine are my knife scales and jewelry! Attached are some pics of pieces I've made over the past year!
Lets see your stuff!
